Two stores are your new friends, Joann and Hobby Lobby. They have the best material for making corsets. Also I found these two patterns to be very helpful. Both can be modified to your liking. Just remember that corsets are a lot of work, but good luck! I know you can do it.

No problem and if you need any more help feel free to ask me! I'm rather good at altering and I'll do my best to walk you through it if I can, or send picture instructions. Good luck! Oh and let us see when you finish, please.

I found one other good pattern, it's Simplicity 2966. It's more modern. Just though I'd let you know.

McCalls 4994 ,4861

Vogue 2810

These are all good patterns , and good for some one who is on the plus side of the pattern list, if thats the problem you have finding one that fits.
Good luck. If you want steel boning youll have to find it online.

Oops! Sorry I thought I had included the links. But here they are for you...

It's a little more modern, but with the right touches it can be very classy and elegant.

I have this pattern and I love it! It can be altered however you need.
