    Fantastic job! "Maggie" came to mind for the name of your new fabulous dress form, since the stand was salvaged from Margaret.

    Hi Chrissie, new subscriber here. Thoroughly enjoyed your video. I am just back to sewing after a long absence and have been thinking for a while that I would like to do this. I was very hesitant before I watched your video but now I feel that I can do this so thank you so much. Take care Norma from Newcastle x

    Hi! 👋 I came over from Sequin Girlie’s shout out, and I enjoyed your video! You seem everything she said you are. I like the fabric you chose for your outer layer; exactly my esthetic. 😘 Your mannequin is impressive. You surely have more patience than I do! Haha. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos.
    Edited to add that going from Margaret’s ancestry, I’d name her Peggy or Peg
    Lynn from SC, USA

    I just loved this, and she turned out so well☺ I read the comment below about Betty being both your Nanna's name so that would just be a perfect name for her ☺

    Poor Margaret, you could have let her leave the room after roasting her..instead she had to sit there awkwardly. Margaret, ...are you OK Hun? 😅

    Well I’m doing mine just as we speak! I chose an old curtain, interfaced it, some old jeans for the structure and I will stuff her with pillows and an old winter cover (I don’t know how it’s named and am too lazy to search). I also have a Margaret but her name is Trula (some kind of slob in German) and she just landed on one of the shelves in my sewing room. She will stay as a coat rack 😅😅😅
    How about naming yours like you? It’s a cute name. I will name mine Rosalind 😅 or Rosita ❤

    I’m starting to work on bootstrap pants form. I did a toile version while I was on vacation just to get hang of sewing it. How about the name Abigail or Abby for short. I have one of those mannequins with the dials and no it wasn’t good at all. I called her Hazel. I also want to do the dress form.

      It was all my own doing which is why it isn’t perfect 🤣🤣 I think it was about 2 days work ( I do it on and off when I can ) ❤️
