Could a cage crinoline pattern be adapted to make a bustle or farthingale?
A bustle is a totally different shape - no matter what type of bustle, so no a cage pattern could not be adapted. I wouldn't use it to make a Farthingale either, it would be easier to find a pattern for a Farthingale. The Mantua Maker website has Farthingales patterns.
Hello, unfortunately the pattern for the longer white crinoline does not seem to be available on your website anymore. Or am I mistaken?
If click on the pattern, that you want, on the website it will take you to the item - and in the item details there will be a link to purchase the pattern from the maker of the pattern. I can no longer get printed patterns.
@@farthingalescorsetmakingsu2655 Is the pattern for the cage shown at minute 1:42 available? If yes, could I have the direct link to it? Thanks in advance.
@@_xxsimoxz_7310 I don't recall exactly which pattern that was - I made this about 20 years ago. But here is a link to Truly Victorian patterns - Most of the cages I made were either by them or by Simplicity trulyvictorian.info/index.php/product-category/womens-patterns/
@@farthingalescorsetmakingsu2655Thanks!! Have a great one.
No wait! How do I tip the steel ones?!
This is tipping steel bone
If I may ask, how big is the bottom hoop?
I'm sorry, but I don't recall - that's a long time ago. It still exists but I'm not sure which box it's in.Likely about 2.5 meters
Where can i buy this hoop steel and connector?

WOW! Wow, wow, wow.
I just found the Farthingales website and subscribed to the UA-cam version. Unfortunately, I was unable to find anything other than the introductory page on the internet. Please include more information regarding accessing information and shopping. Thank you.
Thank you so much this video is a huge help.
Very informative. Thank you. ❤
Thank you so much for this timely demonstration! I got to the bone-casing stage of my first corset yesterday and realized I was a bit hazy on the various methods.
Sometimes things just work out 🙂
Wonderful. Easy to understand!
Thank you, I always aim to keep it simple.
Buenas tardes Necesito información de los busk y de cuchara referencias o catálogo por favor gracias
Muchas gracias por compartir tus conocimientos, aunque no entendí tu idioma, su explicación fué muy clara y de gran aporte. Muchas gracias nuevamente. Le mando un abrazo desde Colombia 🌹
Thank you so much for this video, very informative and easy to follow.
So cool! Thanks for doing this. I’d love to see an enfantine shirt crinoline being made.
Thank u do much. My first busk install
Amazing tutorial, thank you! One question, about how much steel did it take to make this short cage? I’m making one similar and am unsure of how much to buy.
It was less than 5 meters. I think it was about 3 meters, but I made it a long time ago and don't recall.
@@farthingalescorsetmakingsu2655 thank you!
I really appreciate that you began this with the words "zipper foot"
Very helpful, thank you!!
I wanted to turn a cheap hoop crinoline into a smaller bustle because I just bought a nicer full length crinoline, but I couldn’t wrap my head around how to get the shape I wanted. This was very useful to see to estimate how I might need to alter it, I’m very great-full!
Hmm, could barely hear you. Just my device?
I suspect it's your devise. This video has been up for several years and with over 4,000 views I've not heard this comment before.
Me too
Thank you!
I bought your kit a few years ago. This must be a new video. My kit said that you didn't have the right material for the waist band, so I sent something diffent. My poor cage crinoline was a hot mess. Even with sewing the steel in place did not help.
Did this video help? a different product for the waistband should not have made any difference.
Thank you for showing how flexible a busk is, I was wondering about that.
Thank you so much for the tutorial and your website to buy the stuff! I'll be tackling a hoop skirt for my next cosplay and this was extremally useful!
Thank you for such clear explanations of each product and demonstrations of how they flex etc. Extremely useful.
Thank You for this video! I've been wanting to make my own graduation dress ( Class of 21' ) and wanted it to have a corset top to my dress but want to be more knowledgeable on boning and what would be best to use. This taught me new things such as how to cut then properly, there being different types of boning but also it's use in it. I also appreciate how much detail you want into this video. Thank You for this video! Tataa,Take care and God Bless!
I'm glad you enjoyed it. We also have several interesting blog post on our website that might be of interest www.farthingalescorsetmakingsupplies.com/blogs/tips-tricks
I love sharing your videos with my students! So clear and informative!
Hey mam..need your help...I want to make a panel ball gown with steel boning so that the panels of the gown remain in shape but how will I connect the steel boning panel together? Please tell ..
I'm not sure what your are asking. The video shows how to connect the hoop and how to use tapes to alter the shape. Do you mean panniers? Panniers do not attach together they attach to a waist band.
Do busks help to maintain posture ?
No, the busk is simply the clasp that allows you to open the corset at the front of your body.
Beautiful creation and efficient! It looked so lightweight
I am India very nice video petticoat
Please material name send to me
This is so helpful! I wasn't sure what type boning I wanted to put in the stays I'm making, and this is helping me make a more informed decision!
Heya how long on an average would you get boning for an underbust corset?
Hello can you tell me how to choose the righ busk size please :) TY for the super video!!
Hi! Can you use tutu steel as a replacement for the hoop steel or is it not as strong?
Yes, you can use tutu steel.
Well, looks like I need to get tin snips. If only I had known that before I finished everything else to do with making my corset... because I need to trim 4 of my bones
@serendipidus1 I used white steel bones for my corset, bolt cutters were the only thing that would cut them (I tried multiple pairs of scissors and pliers)
This was great!!! So helpful!Thanks so much!
wish she would list the size of the steel and the lengths she used just list the materials in the description bellow
Thank you very very very very much 😍
Thank you for the help! I had worked out the issue and this explained what I needed to do clearly and concisely.
Thanks for showing so much detail! I'm making a set of 18th stays, and I know I can't get baleen, but want the flex to be as close as possible- I can't find a video of anyone demonstrating the flex of baleen... Very frustrating! Anyway, I really enjoyed that you showed the flexibility of all your options!
Baleen has the same flex a spiral steel boning - it can flex in every direction! I have a couple of pieces of original baleen from a vintage corset, so I have handled it.
What kind of busk would be appropriate for an early Edwardian corset? I trying to decide between straight or spoon, but not sure if a spoon busk would have been used because of the straight fronted style.
From what I've seen based on extant corsets, definitely a straight busk for Edwardian corsets. Makes sense as they where patterned and marketed as straight front styles. This feature made them "healthier" than the "old" late Victorian style that had a curved front line (and busk). That doesn't mean you can't use a spoon busk on an Edwardian corset if you'd like it and corset doesn't have to be historically accurate. Really depends on what you're wishing to create. Good luck and happy sewing! 🧵🖤🧵
Hi, I was wondering how long a busk should be? If my pattern is 12 inches long in total should I have a 12 inch busk? Maybe shorter to accommodate the binding? Also, great videos! I visited your online store after watching your videos and while shipping to the US is wildly expensive - I will still be saving up money to eventually buy some coutil from your store.
Front busk should definitely be shorter than the front seam length of the pattern (without seam allowances) to accommodate for the width of edge binding on both sides. When starting out, it's a great help to make a mockup (tarp and industrial zip ties) before ordering corset making supplies. This makes sure the right busk length is ordered as fitting has been done. Good luck! 🍀🍀🍀
It's too bad corsets are super unattractive garments.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
You have apparently been living under a rock. Or you grew up with Granny wearing an industrial corset as an undergarment.
@@mindywashburn5898 Yeah, I suppose that applies to me, someone who has enjoyed a great deal of gothic rock and metal and symphonic metal in which corsetry is common. Squished is not a good look.
How do you get that corset is don’t look good they’re beautiful. There’s all different types of corset, You don’t have to wear them skin tight. You’ve just never gone and tried one on that’s what it
Yeah, except corsets aren't *only* for tightlacing. You can wear them loose for only back support if you suffer from back pain. You don't always need to size down. They're nothing like the "torture devices" hype.
Unluckily, one scarcely finds the materials or information about this kind of craftsmanship in my country. It’s a sunshine to be able to watch you work so patiently. You really inspired me and no doubt I’ll be working on a crinoline soon. Thank you so much for sharing such a wonder <3
what would you sugest to do if you need to make one of these but have no hooping in the front. because the skirt has a clear panel in the from that you can see the legs through. very clearly has no hoops in the front
This is Fabulous! 👍🏾💕
