You say mistake, I say creating design detail! Necessity is after all the mother of invention! Looks amazing, and if you hadn’t declared it, no one would have been any the wiser
I'm so glad you were able to salvage your so pretty corset. I think your save is so lovely and you look really good in it. It's nice to have a video where there's no music, no excessive chatting, just sewing and talent. Thank you for being you and being different in what you do. Your subtitles are brilliant.
I just got home from a very hectic day at work. Phones nonstop, tons of weekend problems to solve and constant loud car repair noises. This is the perfect quiet calming way to regenerate. Thank you 🥰
It gives me so much more confidence to try making some thing that looks complicated when I see that everyone makes mistakes so it’s OK if I do as well!
One of the prettiest corsets I've seen, and your clever fix makes it even better. I like your cutting and ironing style - dramatic and slightly menacing. "Busty corset miss" 🤣 very unsafe search terms there!
A triumph! You avoided derailment beautifully. I love the ‘collar’ addition to add the extra length. The corset is so pretty and the coutil was the perfect choice. It turned out so well And you have the perfect figure for it too ) I hope you are delighted with it you super talented maker of wonderful things.
It is so gorgeous! I would have dissolved into a puddle of sadness if that had happened to me…I would not have been able to come up with such a clever and beautiful fix. Thank you for showing that mistakes can be overcome
Are you even wearing a corset if you don't lose a bite of your snack down the front? *laughing* I love everything about this video except the part where you were sad, because I don't love seeing you sad. But I do like how cleverly you dealt with your challenge - literally winging it! It's a gorgeous corset and the fit and shape are stunning. Very nicely done! (I also adore your humour!)
I love your solution! It's possible the fit issue came from not boning your mock-up on both sides. The extra compression might have pushed up more of your curves towards the bust.
While it may be an electric sewing demon, I do love your machine since it was the first I learned to sew on! Also this entire video is just so relatable, thanks for sharing!
@@JuulThijssen It's such a nice machine, my mom has the exact same one and I learned how to sew on it as well. I now have my own trusty Singer, but that Pfaff taught me most of what I know.
Making a corset is a big challenge, but saving it with scraps and ingenuity is exactly what people would have done when such corsets were being made, particularly at home. So many extant bits of clothing show piecing. Today, with our flush-it-and-forget-it mentality, piecing is saved for quilts, using all new fabric, of course. I think you did a great job and figuring out how to correct a mistake is where the real meaning of "art" comes in to play. You did a great job!
The coutil that you used has the most beautiful design and colour. All I can find is natural, beige, white or black and nothing with a pattern so thank you for sharing the name of the merchant that you purchased it from. Once more scissor cutting extraordinaire...it sends ripples of pure pleasure through my body. :)
The solution was so elegantly executed. The little detail of the buttons and loops, the lace overlay, the shape of the inserts...it was all just perfect. Honestly that mistake was serendipitous. And that coutil is probably the most gorgeous corset fabric I've seen anyone use on a corset. I hope it is comfortable and you are able to enjoy wearing it after all that hard work. My busty corset story is that I am still in the thinking stages. There isnt an easily available pattern for a Victorian sport corset in my size and my drafting skills are non existent. So I keep watching make videos, store up ideas, improving sewing techniques and hoping a pattern in my size is released some day.
I just discovered your channel by chance and I'm so glad I did!!! I'm having some corset mockup struggles right now, so its makes me very happy to see that mistakes can be fixed at any stage. And your corset turned out so lovely!!!!
If you had just shown the end product, I'd have been very impressed at your pretty corset! But since you showed us the whole process, I am extremely impressed! And (as always) what glorious fabric!
This was such a great video! I love the lace on the top, it looks fantastic even if not part of your original design. Such an amazing fix, so proud of you xxx
I swear I would have cried .... that is just exquisite. Color, lace and all. Woderful, wonderful, wonderful. Thank you for sharing life's "little bumps in the road".
It looks beautiful, the shape is gorgeous! I was very curious to see how you fixed it since I couldn't spot it on the pictures, which in itself means it was a very successful fix ;). Also the 'harvesting bones' took me way too long to understand, it meaning removing corset bones just makes too much sense to me 😆
I did leave out one less successful fix, after which I came up with the extra pocket for the extended boning 🤫 Sewing terminology is complicated enough as it is, but then there’s corset terminology and suddenly you’re talking about boobs and boning all the time 😅
I liked tge idea of your denim mock up corset as the actual thing, thinking of a badass horsey chick with riding crop and boots, plus a wig piled up so high even birds would get vertigo!
I love the *design decisions* you made to decorate the top of your corset! They look deliberate, and they are cute and add to the shape nicely! (noone needs to know it was a mistake!!) I love the fabric and the overall shape you get in the end! oh my such curves!!!
"End bosses" sounds like you're getting close to winning the video game!!! Brilliant solution. It's when things go wrong and you figure out how to right them that you realize how much you've learned :)
DAYEMM!!!!! That Looks Fine!!! What Fabulous Work!! It all looks like it's meant to be that way. The extra panel at the top gives you an extra amazing shape. Your Creation is AMAZING!!!
I love the way you fixed this problem. It looks stunning on you! I guess we can add corsets to the term 'piecing is period' now LOL. I find your videos calming and VERY relaxing! Thank you!
Wow! what a beautiful corset and it does amazing things for your figure. The posing at the end with snacks and the odd spill waslaugh-out-loud funny. Great job!
I can't believe you managed to save it with such ingenuity. I don't know if I would have come to the same conclusion as easily- and it looks stunning! If we hadn't been shown, I would have never known. Kudos to your quick thinking! Also, the button detail is lovely and I think pulls it together really nicely. As someone who's recently discovered how to hand-make button loops, yours are looking superb.
I would have been in awe, just from making the corset, but then you made a boo-boo into a Booyah! Well done indeed! Such a pretty corset and it suits you so well. Thanks for sharing your journey!
I'm of the opinion that your oops moment and correction just might be the answer for us busty girls. This is the first video I've watched of yours, and I am amazed at how well you pulled off perfecting your corset. I needed to see this to move forward, and not be so worried about making mistakes. You have greatly inspired me. PS - As someone who always has CC turned on, I enjoy being able to read the steps, and the information you're bringing to us, and I enjoy the sounds of the making progress.
That is some lovely work. Well done. Right now I'm taking a break from my Redthreaded Regency half stays. I'm working on making an XL bigger and, um, bustier. I've increased the height of the panels. I've increased the number of bones. I'm going to have to play around with the seam allowances because there's no gap in the back. Can't even remember what mock-up number I'm up to - may be 8 or 9. So. Frustration equals rearranging our living room to better accommodate the sewing. It'll get there. Eventually. - Cathy (&, accidently, Steve), Ottawa/Bytown
Nice save! It turned out lovely 💕. I thought the denim mock up was super cool too. I know it didn’t work out so great as a mock up but I’m still tempted to use denim for my mock up when I finally get around to making one myself... just so I can finish up the denim one for knocking around in
I have made 2 corsets so far. Neither fit. I am busty also. I love your solution at the top. I think it was brilliant! It also smoothed out that corset line at the top and really added a famine touch. I just bought the same pattern and will watch this video again. Thank you.
Great video! You spent a lot of time and put a lot of thought into this corset, and it shows! I actually LOVE your solution to the bust height issue. You know what it reminds me of, is those bras that have the non-stretch poly satin for the bottom panels of the cup, and then the top third of the cup will be some kind of illusion lace/net that's slightly stretchy. Corset coutil is, obviously, the opposite of stretchy, but nevertheless, the fact that the top part of the bust isn't boned, means it will have relatively more give than the rest of the corset. So, I love it as a design choice, because I feel like it will soften up the top "bump" you sometimes see when corsets are worn under clothes without a corset cover. I'm mulling over an idea in my head for some kind of lightweight corset/bralette?? type garment to suit my personal needs for daily wear in a warm climate, and I was unsure about boned cups vs. princess seams all the way to the top, so I may actually incorporate something quite like this in my design.
If you haven't seen them, several makers have videos on more unconventional corsets that might give you ideas. Nicole Rudolph has videos on ribbon and sports corsets and she also did one bralette. Mariah Pattie has a series on adapting stays patterns into sort of a sports bra type thing. And Prior Attire recently completed a book featuring Victorian sports corsets, and has been doing videos on various ones.
I love it! Your 'fix' actually made it better! (I know that envy is a self-damaging emotion, so I am trying not to envy your final look all laced into your beautiful corset!)
Scrapping it would have been a tragedy, the fabric is so beautiful and all that work... That was a pretty cool save - you can't even tell in the end :)
That is such a good fix! I’ve only ever made four boned garments, and all of those around fifteen years ago in my early twenties. The first one was a wearable (-ish) mockup, the second one a corset top I made to match a mermaid tail skirt and go goth-clubbing in, the third a remake of an 80’s blouse into a victorian-ish boned bodice and the fourth a fake leather armor with gold embroidery. They all had their... let’s call them quirks and jury rigged fixes, and they all looked fairly bad inside but very good once worn. Historybounding supported by punk-stitching for the win! Your fix is much neater though, and I’ll squirrel it away in my brain for future potential needs.
@@JuulThijssen Yes, very different. It would be interesting to return to it now, after all this passive research I’ve been doing (i.e. watching people make stuff on youtube) and see how much it has changed my practical understanding. Lately I have mostly been knitting and crocheting (because I have not had the mental or apartmental space for extensive sewing) and those crafts definitely excercise the understanding of how to make surfaces into three-dimensional coverings in a different way. It would be nice to visit the other end of the garment spectrum again and make some structured, built up things. I have a heavy and worn-out old tail coat, and putting it on is like getting a good hug. The structure and weight gives the garment such substance and support, like a good pair of shoes. I would love to be able to make something like that for myself. Or a smoking robe, but not for smoking - it would have padded shoulders for cats to sit on and hopefully protect my clothes from some of the hair.
I feel you, I had almost the same problems with my last corset, my mockup looked almost the same (denim fabric, fitted well, partially boned) but the corset turned out.. weird. not right. But I was able to fix it :) I enjoyed watching that video a lot and the corset is just beautiful
Turned out super cute! I'm sure I would have had a melt if something would not fit me after a perfect mock up, but you saved it so cleverly! This is a great source of inspiration!
your corset video has to be the best. Partly your lack of chatter which due to people trying too hard and sound distortion often irritates but mostly the result and you look so good in that result !
Your corset is so lovely! the silhouette is *chefs kiss* ...my only corset story: I bought an off the rack corset and I was trying to do the right thing to break it in, going slowly for short periods of time. well, I guess I went a bit snugger than I should have because I ended up getting light headed and then panicked because I couldn't untie myself. it's now in the back of my closet. maybe one day I'll go back to it, lol.
PURE GENIUS!~ this was a delite! 👺 I found you because I will be attempting this corset! Your fix was just perfect! Your tattoos are the coolest too btw!
Thank you both for your videos showcasing your skill and for posting a video showing a mistake you made and your solution! The end result is gorgeous! I originally followed you for your hat video but have enjoyed everything you post.
Sei fantastica! Bel lavoro! Mi hai ricordato la mia vicina che negli anni 60/70 confezionava ancora i busti fatti più o meno come questo. Ero bambina e la adoravo!!! Anche mia mamma li usava e diceva che erano un toccasana per la schiena! L'unica differenza era che si allacciavano solo sul davanti. 🥰
It's lovely. I hope you don't mind me saying this, but it's encouraging to us lesser mortals to see that even a skilled dressmaker like you can make a mistake. It's also encouraging to see you fix it so elegantly. It shows how much Wedgie contributes to the process, though.
Gorgeous result! I love how you fixed it, as I have a similar top-heavy problem with most things I make. I think this might have inspired me to try a full corset. Also thank you for the closed captioning, it is so helpful.
@@JuulThijssen I have only started sewing again after about twenty years, so I am a tad rusty. But it will go on my to do list. I just checked the stockists, they ship to Australia so that's exciting. Thank you 😊
Though I'm sorry for the upset the error caused you, while being in awe at how well the fix worked! It looks really amazing on you, congratulations on your pretty pink corset!

I can only applaud your legendary niftyness. Also, the corset is gorgeous and the silhouette it gives is to die for.
I’m not gonna
Wow Juuls that corset gives you an amazing shape. And the fix made it even prettier. ❤
You say mistake, I say creating design detail!
Necessity is after all the mother of invention!
Looks amazing, and if you hadn’t declared it, no one would have been any the wiser
"busty corset miss" is soooo funny! Thank you for sharing and what a wonderful save! I think it turned out very pretty.
So funny and a great save!

Glad to be of service!
Your video’s are so calming. The sounds are fascinating and everything is so precise....AND the corset looks so much better after you ‘saved’ it!
Fantastic... I appreciate the honesty of, well that was unexpected, let’s fix this problem. Thank you for that.
It gives me so much more confidence to try making some thing that looks complicated when I see that everyone makes mistakes so it’s OK if I do as well!
One of the prettiest corsets I've seen, and your clever fix makes it even better.
I like your cutting and ironing style - dramatic and slightly menacing.
"Busty corset miss" 🤣 very unsafe search terms there!
Well my cutting and ironing is dramatic in real life too... I always have scars on my hands ;)
A triumph!

Lovely video. Ironic that to "wing it" you made wings of fabric? Results are stunning, so great save!
Ha, I didn't even catch that myself!
Juul this came out amazing and I think the "fix" was meant to be. It just adds a little cute flourish. You look incredible in it!
Are you even wearing a corset if you don't lose a bite of your snack down the front? *laughing*

You always have to save some bites for later, as a bedtime snack 😂
Wow! It turned out so lovely
I love your solution! It's possible the fit issue came from not boning your mock-up on both sides. The extra compression might have pushed up more of your curves towards the bust.
Very well possible! So I hope people will learn from my mistakes (I hope I learn from my mistakes but we'll see about that)
While it may be an electric sewing demon, I do love your machine since it was the first I learned to sew on! Also this entire video is just so relatable, thanks for sharing!

What a gorgeous corset. The coutil is beautiful. Thanks for sharing your trials and triumphs with this project. It looks amazing.
You wing it well. After putting forth so much effort, I can understand wearing it around the house to show off all the hard and clever work.

Really enjoyed your captions on this one! :-). So glad you found your path to a creative solution.
Thank you so much! You are wonderful!!
Well, it looks gorgeous! No mistake about that!!
It's lovely. I hope you don't mind me saying this, but it's encouraging to us lesser mortals to see that even a skilled dressmaker like you can make a mistake. It's also encouraging to see you fix it so elegantly. It shows how much Wedgie contributes to the process, though.
Probably it's because I didn't consult his Floofy Lordship that I made the mistake in the furst place. ;)
@@JuulThijssen I thought that might be the reason.
Well done with the modification to the bust area. It is pretty and it suits you.
Great video. Its always nice to see people overcoming mistakes....and that was a fantastic save! xx
What a great save you made! Pretty color. TFS.😊 💖
This save was so ingenious! I think it looks perfect!
Gorgeous result! I love how you fixed it, as I have a similar top-heavy problem with most things I make. I think this might have inspired me to try a full corset. Also thank you for the closed captioning, it is so helpful.
Cleverly fixed! It looks amazing on you! ❤️
What a great save! It is so pretty and such a wonderful shape. Love your videos, thank you
Amazing corset! It looks wonderful on you. I may have to try my hand at a busty corset myself! Thank you.
I can really recommend the pattern, but I should say the instructions are minimal so you need to have a bit of prior experience.
@@JuulThijssen I have only started sewing again after about twenty years, so I am a tad rusty. But it will go on my to do list. I just checked the stockists, they ship to Australia so that's exciting. Thank you 😊
Looks adorable! I would think more comfortable sewn that way too! Good job making it work!
Wow, Juul, you did a beautiful job! It looks like you meant it to be that way from the beginning!
I love it more with the oops and the lace perfect!
Gorgeous!!! So beautiful!!! Bravo!!! ♥️♥️♥️
Though I'm sorry for the upset the error caused you, while being in awe at how well the fix worked! It looks really amazing on you, congratulations on your pretty pink corset!
Beautiful craftsmanship love watching you
Great save, and gorgeous, just gorgeous!
That is beautiful! The fix totally makes it pop!
