effigy corset update

The holes are sewn, the pieces are whipstitched together and I'm busy boning it. Inspired by [livejournal.com profile] liadethornegge actually counting her boning channels I counted mine: 30 on the back and 25 on each front, of varying length of course.

That is very interresting. I am most curious to se your result when finished.
I have the book about the funeral effigies in Westminster Abbey, and i have seen Elizabeths corset face to face. I also admired her grave tomb, so beautifull.
