Almost 5 years after making them, I finally have completed the video for my 18th century Maternity Stays!
If you missed the announcement I am currently pregnant with my 3rd child, and I am working on an 18th Century Maternity summer series!
Announcement Video: youtu.be/7srK0jwt6RQ
Quilted Petticoat: Coming Soon
Pet en L'air: Coming Soon
Also before I get angry comments on wearing stays while pregnant, these are NOT TIGHT LACED!!! I can easily fit my hands under the stays while they are on. Baby was NOT being squished or harmed in anyway while I was wear them, and they gave me AMAZING back support!!
