On the Edge

Could somebody please shoot me the next time I suggest that a corset can be made in a week? Progress report so far -  lining made up and  attached, boning channels sewn in (for the most part), nerves frayed.  All to do now is3 or 4 more bone chanels, bone insertion and binding.  It takes longer than it sounds.  I have to cut the bones to size first.

So here's some light relief.

On Saturday, Miss T popped round with some presents.  A bag of weeds for Eggy and Peggy to rummage through, and this lovely silver charm for me.  She saw it and thought of me!


I have put it on my favourite bracelet which I wear all the time.  Isn't it just gorgeous?  

Miss T is a very nice lady.  A very very nice lady indeed!!

Thankyou L!

Hope the corset is coming on well. That charm is really very pretty. I have a charm bracelet too and I love thinking back through all the charms on it and remembering when they were given to me.
