My name’s Claire, and I have a fabric problem.

 

Today I took on four new corset orders, to be completed during August. In order that people could choose the fabric that they wanted, I decided to organise a gallery.

All of the fabrics shown below are part of my very own fabric stash, which I’ve been collecting since approximately 2004. This is only a small selection, you can see the rest over at Flickr.

Corset fabrics

I’m not quite certain what I thought I was going to do with all of these fabrics.

Well, okay, I knew I was going to sew them one day, and I have been procrastinating like mad with regard to making corsets for exactly as long as I’ve been collecting the fabrics with which to make them.

I don’t know how I thought anybody was going to ask me to make a corset from any of these amazing fabrics when they were all tucked away carefully in my Shed, in an enormous box.

What I’m planning to do from now on is to offer a limited number or corsets for sale each month, made from the fabrics in my collection.

I’ll make a page for all the details later, but if you like the look of any of the fabrics, please feel free to claim it, and join the queue!
