External boning channels...

Dec 19, 2007 22:54

Hey everyone!

I'm half-way through my second corset. It's two layered with one layer of black drill and the other of a black and red oriental brocade. I have a question about boning channels.

On my first corset, I just used internal boning channels using the boning casing that came with the boning. For this one, or possibly my next one, I'm wanting to test out external boning boning channels. I love the way that they look, but I have no idea how to do them!

Do I just sew them on the same way that I do with the internal ones? Like, sewing them down each side and then slipping the boning in? Or do I attach them some other way? Do I use the boning casing that I buy with the boning? Or do I have to make them myself? I'm hoping to do the boning tomorrow, and I'd love to do external boning channels. Any ideas? If not, I might just see what I can do by attaching them the same way as internal boning channels.

Sorry if this was a newbie and obvious question, but I really am abit of a newbie =P

Thanks in advance!
