I’m extremely excited to launch a new Scroop Pattern, and I’m even more excited by how cute and/or gorgeous the sample photos featuring the beautiful @modest_modiste are!
The Minette Stays are front lacing ‘transitional’ stays appropriate to 1785-1810. They cover the change from fully boned conical 18th century stays to the short waisted, bust-focused stays/corsets of the Regency era.
And they make adorable cottagecore corsets too!
The instructions include information for making them both fully handsewn, using period accurate stitches and techniques, and with machine sewing and metal grommets.
