I needed for sewing a mannequin 44-46 size .... I went down to different stores - the price of such about 6 thousand rubles .... Of course it is expensive for me .... So I decided to take a mannequin with my sister)) ) Found the masterclass on the Internet, they gathered together and that's what we did:
... so we needed: 2 rolls of packaging tape, knitted dress, one model, two patient hands and 2 hours of free time ..
I had to sacrifice my old knitted dress:
I naturally acted as a model - since my Taurus had to be restored in a mannequin with a scotch))) ... cut off the excess part of the collar:
Scotch tape start under the breast ... Immediately I warn you - it becomes more difficult to breathe in this frame, on this the one who wakes up the skat - in our case it was Marishka - I should do it not only carefully, but very fast!
It is better to do 2-3 layers of winding and scotch not to regret - then the mannequin will be more dense and better to keep the shape! Then the cross-crossover winding with separate pieces with a long 40-50cm like straps from the chest to the back and across the chest. If the tape is fighting and appear folds - to absorb them right with scissors and smooth their hands, then the mannequin will be neat and on the figure to repeat the bends of the body
This is how the back looks like:
We continue to impose pieces of scotch and fill in short pieces of 15-20cm long chest, do not forget to do the peckers in the refractive places ...
Next, fill the back and space under the mouse:
After the upper part is coming to the winding of the tummy and the thighs ... Special attention should be paid to the Pope - because it's quite difficult to repeat the bends there ... Try to glow tape with short ribbons.
Marinka It turned out just fine ... Apparently the classes of Paper-Masha in childhood)))):
By this time and move and breathe in this case it becomes problematic ... Begins to beat the back from constant straightening ... But the result is worth it))))) wind the remaining problem areas - the throat, shoulders and equalize the mannequin all over the area ... .
Then carefully absorb the scissors on the back. It is better to prepare baby scissors in advance with stupid ends, because the scotch plumps the body in the dress is very tight and to absorb it sometimes to touch the skin .... In our case, Marishka to pull the mannequin and do not cut me away from her hand, for what, in fact, I She is very grateful)))) Well, and how without my omnipresent helpers - Masniki, who all this time spinning around us and worried about her mistress))))):
Cat clearly wondered what kind of nonsense we came up with)))
Then we glue the incision with the same scotch and the mannequin is almost ready, it does not keep a form even without packing:
We rush the neck and sleeves.
Well, you need to fill like a toy, some kind of gasket material, the resulting product ...
Make a rounded bottom from the cardboard and you can invent a stand - but it is optional)))) On the bottom, the mannequin is not bad too))) Personally, I bought a stand in the store OBI Stand on the rollers for flowers for the 1990 and cuttings from the shovel for 49r ... The husband joined it all with metal corners and self-tapping and a stand:
And she put on a mannequin and fasten it with a scotch. That's what happened in the end !!!:
Very practical and convenient for sewing the product and price the most)))
