[0] Twill tape – internal boning channels [2] You can’t see the contour of the bones from the outside of the corset. If you purchase good quality, tightly woven twill tape it creates a secure channel which will last medium to long term. [3] Getting hold of good quality twill tape can be difficult (especially in the UK). Twill tape is expensive compared to other methods. It can make the boning channel appear a little bulky – especially at the edges. Too often I have seen ridges created from the stitch line and the edge of the twill tape which is noticeable from the outside of the corset. Lining up the position of the twill tape on the inside of the corset can be a real pain – it’s no fun when you’ve stitched a perfectly straight boning channel only to discover that your stitch line has run off the edge of the twill tape. It takes time to hand baste your boning channel into position. Not suitable for external boning channels. [1] 
Stitch a strip of twill tape to the inside of the corset and insert your boning in between the stitch lines.
