Chemise: I omitted the ruffles. I also doubled the length of the sleeves and then hemmed them so they extended just beyond my bodice sleeves. Bum pad: No changes, except that I never got around to closing the opening where I inserted the stuffing. I will probably close this at some point but it is nice to be able to adjust the stuffing as I like. Corset: I followed American Duchess's tutorial for fully boning the stays. I used 3/8" heavy duty cord ties, so I increased the boning channels to 1/2...

Oh, how very sweet! The fabric you chose for your stays is almost too pretty to cover up!

Thanks! It was my favorite part of the ensemble but is sadly hidden from view.

Love the corset! I'm not sure I need a bum pad in my wardrobe but it did make me smile!
