My Uniquely You dress form needed a makeover. Instead of buying her slightly smaller than me and padding up, I bought a larger size relying on being able to sew the cover in to pull her in. But the waist wasn't at the right level and various other problems. So I ended up slicing her up with a carving knife and am covering up the damage. Need to tweak the bottom edge, add some elastic to bottom, cover and dart some at armholes, add a pin cushion to top. Lastly, I'll give her a good steam with my steamer to shrink it a little bit to smooth it out.
Overall, I'm pleased so far.

Yes, well done. The dressform looks just right now.
Thank you, Nancy, Mandy! I steamed it last night, and it looks a little tighter now!
