Invisible stitching & boning

I was unsure what to do to finish off the bottom of the corset, and was considering bias binding but I didn't want it to look silly if the binding wasn't black satin...plus it would be difficult with the corset being so curved on the bottom. So my tutor suggested to invisibly stitch the corset up, which I did. I started by ironing the fabrics inwards 1.5cm (the seam allowance).
I then pinned them down using the creases I'd made as guidelines
I inserted the boning pieces into the casings and pinned the ends of the tunnels so they wouldn't slide out.
Time to sew...this may take a while!
