Corseted tunic/mini-dress digital pattern - raglan-sleeved with cincher. Sizes UK 6 (US2 4) - UK 26 (US 22)
CORSETED RAGLAN-SLEEVED TUNIC /MINI-DRESS PATTERN! This is a beautiful side-lacing corseted & sleeved tunic digital pattern with a gentle shaping to accentuate your waist. Currently available in 11 dress sizes (see photo for sizing information) - with a full-bust adjustment for bust sizes +1'' and +2'' on the standard size.
Includes a 28 page manual of corset construction & fitting notes!
This is an intermediate - advanced level design. The design can be made with the integrated cincher as its foundation (side-laces) or the cincher corset can made separately (two designs in one). To keep seams less bulky a serger/overlocking stitch is recommended for finishing the top of the inner corset and the tunic seams or a liner can be made to hide the seam allowances.
The design can be altered if you are looking to make a dress with a foundation that gives a more hourglass silhouette (and you have more advanced sewing skills!); the corset lacing can be moved to the back and hidden behind a zip closure at the dress centre back. The sleeves and dress length can of course be lengthened if you prefer an elegant dress rather than a tunic.

There are no restrictions on the use of this pattern - use to your heart's content. I simply ask that you don't pass on the file or, say, profit from a line of ready-to-wear corsets.
