This is an original pattern from 1898 someone has scanned in and even explained how one could resize it on the computer. I couldn't figure out exactly what they were talking about, so I simply printed it on mylar and proportionately enlarged it. It made it too long, but that's fairly fixable. With any corset pattern, you should be test fitting it several times anyway.

I'm trying to make a black leather show girl costume in time for a competition in May. I decided to give my imagination free reign, which it still isn't used to. ;-) Cheers, Kathy It’s never too late to be who you might have been.-George Eliot Tosach eólais imchomarc/Questioning is the beginning of knowledge. -Irish proverb One can never consent to creep when one feels an impulse to soar.-Helen Keller The difference between stupid and intelligent people - and this is true whether or not they are educated - is that intelligent people can handle subtlety. They are not baffled by ambiguous or even contradictory situations. In fact, they expect them and are apt to be suspicious when things seem overly straightforward. - Neal Stephenson, "The Diamond Age" It's not who you are that holds you back, it's who you think you're not. - Denis Waitley __________________________________________________________________ Be smarter than spam.
