FAQ

Frequently asked questions

I already have a sewing mannequin, do I need to buy another one?

You can reuse your sewing dummy, as long as it’s smaller than you are. Because you can enlarge an area, but not shrink it.

If you already have a mannequin you’d like to modify, you’ll need to spend an average of 20 to 30 euros on supplies. And another 30 euros to buy a basic mannequin (I’ll show you everything).

To make your bespoke sewing dummy, you need :

  • A basic mannequin
  • Ouatine (padding)
  • Bolducs
  • Linen or cotton fabric
  • I give you all my links in the training.

It’s important to remember that a change in weight doesn’t necessarily mean a change in size.
To go from one size to another, you need a 2 cm difference in circumference. Don’t forget to keep your measurement sheet to see if you’ve really changed size.

Yes, it’s quite possible to find your canvas at a flea market to reduce the cost of your supplies. The main thing is that the canvas should not be too thin.

It’s quite possible, but I recommend that you buy a sewing dummy that’s already on its feet to make this step easier.

Why do you need a custom-made Sewing mannequin ?

Having a sewing mannequin made to measure is every seamstress’s dream!

And it’s easy to see why, given the many advantages a sewing bust can bring to your creations!

If you’re fed up with ready-made patterns and want to take your sewing to the next level by creating your own designs, a sewing dummy is essential.

With a made-to-measure mannequin, you can properly adjust your creation and get a real professional look at what you’re doing, saving you time and comfort.

It’s much easier to adjust your fabric and see how your garments fall. Adjust the length of your dresses, skirts and pants, right on the sewing mannequin!

That’s why I’ve created a comprehensive training course on the subject, in which I show you step-by-step how I make my own made-to-measure mannequin without breaking the bank!

I’ve made this training course accessible to as many people as possible, so you can make your own woman’s mannequin!

If you’ve been sewing for several years and you know how to make skirts, dresses, kits, jackets, etc., then you’ve got what it takes for this model-making course!

If you’d like to take your sewing to the next level, then you’ll need a real, practical and functional sewing mannequin!

It’s the indispensable tool of every self-respecting seamstress.
