A former handbag and an old pair of jeans become a pirate style corset


Today the last part of the hobo handbag and an old pair of black jeans become an 18th century inspired pirate style corset top.



Starting with this ....


Using a best as the basis of a pattern ....


Trimming with strips cut from this fabric ...



I enjoy the way this turned out and this project was a satisfying end to a very busy day, but looking at this objectively I would like to finish the edges of the front section and add some detail and interest in the front.
What do you suggest?
