These are where you put thread tacks to hold the lace against the foundation. It insures that the lace doesn't gap away from the body. Here's the inside after I put some of the tacks in
I have a long way to go to finish, but I'd say it's about half done right now. Tonight I will attach the scallops to the top, and maybe insert the zipper if I have time and I'm not too tired.No picture for the parting shot, but the kids are now back in school. Woo hoo! Snoopy dance time in my town!
Happy sewing!

Wow! That is looking super! The colors are gorgeous! Can't wait to see the finished product.
The lace is gorgeous. Really, to die for. Interested to know what you will use to line such a form fitting piece. Can't wait to see it on. A lovely piece.
That is a seriously gorgeous creation. Love the colors and the beading, and I can't wait to see it on you.
OMG, Ann, that is amazing!
LOVE that lace and the fabric combination. Perfect colors for you! Can't wait to see it finished.
Looks fantastic Ann. That thing could hold up......racks and racks......:)
A seriously gorgeous piece.
The color combinations are amazing!! This is going to be one fabulous buster, oops, I mean bustier :)
Could you share more of the engineering that went into your bustier? Many of your readers may not appreciate how much your ribcage has to expand when you perform. It's not like you'll be merely posing in the bustier and looking gorgeous, you'll be toting barges/lifting bales (AND looking gorgeous!).
This is so gorgeous that I am speechless.
Oh my what a beautiful piece!! I can't wait to see this on you. What are you planning for the skirt?
What a gorgeous piece, and such attention to detail, its couture. Your choice of french corded lace over the duchess satin creates such a lux look - it feels very french. Your pattern making technique is intriguing. Can you elaborate a little more on the darts that were added at the bust to avoid the "uni-boob" effect?
Thanks for a great post.
