I got about 2/3 of the boning channels sewn this morning:

1776 stays 5 2 07

I took the boning diagram from the illustration in Corsets and Crinolines, but I added a few more channels to make the boning a little denser. 
There's a little bit of wrinkling where the vertical channels meet the diagonal channel because the layers shifted a little, but I don't really mind too much because my corsets always do that (I'm hopeless at keeping layers from shifting!).  These stays will certainly never win any Pretty Stays awards, but as long as they fit well enough and are comfortable and give me the right silhouette under dresses, I'm satisfied.
