Need some craft sewing help

**Arcanegirl** · Sep 11th, 2009, 18:22 PM

What would i need to make a corset? ie for the hole bits?
I have a dress ive ordered that might need some adjustments to the sizing of it, Its coming from hong kong with a 2 week delivery, i would be cutting time short to order another size. So if it ends up being a bit big i want to take the back of it in a bit by pulling it in like a corset.

For the holes? Grommets I believe they are called.

You need eyelets for the holes. You can get them anywhere. You get a sort of clamp thing that fastens two parts together on the front and back. Even hobbycraft have them so you won't have difficulty getting any. Just take your corset in though so you can match them.
