Sep. 8th, 2003 11:07 amI guess I have a lot to say today :)
I'm looking to buy a vintage adjustable dress form on Ebay at some point soon. I don't know a thing about them, can gather that they come with size ranges, and I know I want one w/ a stand so it can be at person height (rather than sitting on a table).
Do any of you crafty people have any suggestions or things to stay away from? Thanks in advance!
I'm watching a bid for an Acme one (hee hee) that's the right size, a good price, looks to be in good condition . . . but I'm concerned about how its adjusted (I can't see knobs or buttons on the outside from the pix).

That and the prospect of stuffing the thing so that it was firm enough and pin-able AND figuring out how to get it to stand at human height kind of scared me off :)
