Making Mid-18th Century Stays With Historical Techniques | Sewing

These are GORGEOUS I feel INSPIRED to make stays. too bad I have projects lined up for the next 6 months

Great tutorial! Thank you! Your stays look lovely 🥰

As always, I really enjoyed your video! Your stays came out so nice! Thank you!

I love the outro! Those stays are so beautiful, you did a great job! ❤

These stays turned out so well! 🌻

These look amazing! I never have thought to do stays with the seam allowances sewn like that and your sewing binding close up was very helpful to me! I can't wait to try this method for a future stay creation!

Have you had any issues with reed boning in older stays snapping over time with use?

The stays turned out so beautiful! I can't wait to make my own pair. Your video has given me so much inspiration :)

“Less pokey”. Love it lol. Great video as always. Thanks for sharing.

This is such a timely video as I am getting ready to make a set of stays. Thank you so much!

Beautiful!!!

Wow. Another gorgeous pair of stays! What are your opinions on using zip ties as boning?

The stays are amazing! And the outro... wow, just as inspiring as the stays themselves!

I LOVE THESE, you did an amazing job with this project!

I've heard about reinforcing eyelets with leather, but I've never seen how, so that is a video I would be very interested in seeing!

Also, look at you using Actual Tools to sand your boning! I'll admit that last time I just used a rock...

I believe we have that kettle at church.

What pattern did you use for your shift? I feel like the one I made doesn’t have the right neckline and the sleeves feel rather bulky under my bodice sleeves.

I would like to see a video about reinforcing the eyelets with leather as I have never heard of such a thing!

Are stays like a period bra? What about well endowed women? Do you design them to just smush everything?
