This doesn't look like it changed much from the last photo, but I shaped the top and bottom (removing the useless straps) and added channels for the boning to eventually go into. I know it is difficult to see, but even though it isn't perfectly formed to my body, it is started to look and feel much more structured. Kind of like a real corset, but not quite.
It's tricky to hold it in place for a photo, but you get an idea... ^^;
I have been under the weather recently, so progress is slow. Hopefully things will kick into high gear in the new year!
