HUZZAH!!!

My corset is complete!!! I'm excited, can't you tell? I finished the last of the grommets last night and I just had to try it on. I was so happy, I'm still wearing my work shirt in the pictures, I couldn't even take the time to pull out a proper chemise... The fit is perfect in spite of all my self made pattern adjustments (or maybe because of, dare I hope?). Now I do plan to buy the appropriate corset lacing, the brown lace is just a shoe lace I ran out to buy so I could try it onlast night, but you can see the grommeting and lacing better this way anyway, I guess. Now, I know the criss cross lacing pattern is not exactly HA, but no one will see it but me so who cares. It is also supposed to lace completly closes, which it will with the correct undergarments and once I break it in a little. All said, I am very pleased with the way it turned out.
