I have used the Laughing Moon pattern and found it to be a very good pattern. It is easy to make (comparatively speaking) and the instructions are clear. I know other people who have used it and heard nothing but good things about it from them.

I am planning on making a bodice and dress from Truly Victorian's line (TV490 Ball Gown Bodice & TV298 Umbrella Skirt, both from 1892). But, of course before that, I need a corset! I went to GBACG Pattern Review, and found nothing on TV's corset, but lots of great reviews on Laughing Moon's Dore corset. My usual era is Elizabethan, so if I wear a corset, it is of a very different construction. I would consider myself an intermediate sewer. Question: Do you prefer TV or LM corset, especially for a first-time Victorian sewer? ************************ Rebecca Schmitt aka Agness Cabot, Guilde of St. Lawrence, Bristol Renn Faire ************************* _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume ____________________________________________________________ Globe Life Insurance $1* Buys $50,000 Life Insurance.
