Kitty Flowers Corsets  have been making and designing corsets for over 10 years, the most important thing about her corsets is that they are high quality and comfortable.

Each corset maker has their own method of designing and constructing and Kitty Flower Corsets would like to share their skills with you.

Over the course we will cover Patterns and their placement on fabric, Types of fabric to use, a little history about the corset and the construction of your corset. Throughout the course, depending on your level of sewing, you can make your corset as simple or as complex at you wish. we will supply you with all the: Bones, Busks, Bias binding, Eyelets, Laces required

You will need to bring:

2m of cotton (light drill or heavy cotton) for inner lining
1m Lining Fabric (I find quilting cotton is the best as it is soft and strong.)
1-2m of Outer Fabric )you can bring any fabric you feel may be suitable for the outside and we can see if it will work for you). You may want to stay away from thin, delicate, or large print fabric and get 2m if you have a tartan or a check. *
