That's great! Can you use the dress form for fitting more than one person in your home? As in your daughters and yourself. Does it change in size quite a bit? (I am not familiar with dress forms as you can tell by my questions.)
Alisa, my daughters and I are all pretty much the same size (well, I don't have their tiny waists) so I'm hoping that it will work for all of us. I've never had a dress form before, so I'm not sure yet how much it changes in sizes. Maybe I'll write a post about the dress form after I've used it a bit. Ruth
I haven't commented here before; I am an Australian, living in New Zealand, who loves your blog. I have 6 daughters, and some of us love to sew. Just thought I would let you know how it made me smile to see your Proverbs 31 cross-stitch in the background - I did this one for one of my married daughters, and it hangs above their bed!
I have a vintage one named Molly, that I don't have the patience to adjust (we're talking like 20 levers, nuts & bolts)! Instead I use it for a prop in most of my photos for my etsy shop. Yours looks really nice!
wahoo! I can't wait to "meet" it! Are you going to name her? hehe!
