I made 18th Century Maternity Stays (and they are VERY comfortable!) || Corset Making

Almost 5 years after making them, I finally have completed the video for my 18th century Maternity Stays!

If you missed the announcement I am currently pregnant with my 3rd child, and I am working on an 18th Century Maternity summer series!

Announcement Video:    • 18th Century Maternity Announcement || Sum...  
Quilted Petticoat: Coming Soon
Pet en L'air: Coming Soon

Also before I get angry comments on wearing stays while pregnant, these are NOT TIGHT LACED!!! I can easily fit my hands under the stays while they are on. Baby was NOT being squished or harmed in anyway while I was wear them, and they gave me AMAZING back support!!
