Another great tutorial! I already use this method, but I love how you've laid it out with humor and everything as well :D

Wow, this is awesome, although I would have also included a hand stitch tutorial. I don't like to stitch in the ditch, I hand stitch the other side down.

Thankies ^__^

I'll do a hand-stitching one, next time I'm doing some - I just realized how few people know how to hand-sew. I was just going for the quicker way, because i know the instant I would have put "now hand-sew the other side down like this" people would have freaked out :giggle:

Do you prefer to slip stitch it, or do a type of catch stitch? *is curious* I have found out I rely on slip-stitching like nothing else ^^;

I slip stitch. I only use a catch or blanket stitch when finishing off plushies. Trying to keep the line taught for a catch stitch on a corset takes too much effort.

Ha! You're not kidding - I've never loved hand-sewing as much as the last corset I had to make for class... the instructor insisted that I try the stitch-in-the-ditch method to finish off the top and bottom, and it was so horrible -_____-; Never again, that's for sure!~

Now I wanna go make some plushies *whines*

Ew I would never stitch in the ditch on a corset. You have to sew through the boning and all those layers...yuuuuck!

This was a great tutorial to do. Bias tape can be such a pain when you don't know how to work with it.
