Corset Page Three

The cover isn't sewing on very well. It's too big of course.
I folded the corset together, pinned the edges and cut it so both sides are the same and the lining is closer to the edge. Despite having shrunk a little from sewing boning channels in it, the lining seems to fit the pattern more closely.
If I can get the cover on it, it will be baggy. Nothing is holding it on to the corset, except the whip stitches in the back. It's two days later. I am ready to work on it again. I may baste the cover to the corset and THEN sew the binding on. Remember, the binding is already sewn to the cover. But when I lay i it on the corset and fold it under to the back, it's too big.
