Back then I taped her back together and replaced her stand with that of an old standard lamp, also picked up on Freecycle. My <a href="http://www.lazyseamstress.net/2008/06/new-me.html">first attempt</a> at making her my size was moderately successful, but after a while I pulled her back to her naked self, covered her with a tube of cream ribbing and just used her as a stand.<br> Like so many of us, I&rsquo;ve seen various ways to DIY dress forms, on Pinterest and other blogs. I had been planning to make a calico toile and stuffing her, but yesterday after being up half the night thinking up various designs I&rsquo;d like to try draping, I thought I&rsquo;d give the Duck Tape version a try!</p>
