Jesus. These tiny women!

I'm drafting a corset for a woman who not only has a 24-inch waist*, she's only 6.5" from underarm to waist. I literally pulled out the scraps from the last corset I cut from the fabric, and I'll be using them.

Tiny, tiny, TINY.



*I did measure her in a corset she already had, but she's still TINY. Shorter than me!

Dude! That IS tiny!

Ya. First time I've ever had to ADD an inch or two. But I want this corset to be slightly more hourglass than the one she had on, so I added an inch bust and hips, and left the waist as is, as she was apparently in this one really tight.

But why oh why did I agree to have it done in a week?!?!

Yikes! Because you want to make your clients happy - I've done stuff like that, too. I feel for you!

I didn't get to talk to her much, I talked more to her boyfriend. I asked him about being in Iraq-- he told me some stuff I kind of wish I hadn't heard. Poor guy. But he so wants to make his girl happy, and I want to help.

Aw, good for you. :) I was usually willing to go out of my way for good people - sounds like this qualifies. :)
