You have no idea how much of a relief it was to find someone plusize into sewing and costuming. While Bernadette Banner and Morgan Donner are absolutely brilliant people, I've always wonder how to accomodate garments to my size as a beginning seamstress. Enchanted Rose Costumes and Costuming Drama are alson great for that and all of you are and godsend. So thank you for putting content outthere even if it's scary. (Also, Freya looks fantastic and I may try to do a dressform like that one day)

Threads Magazine has instructions for padding out a dress form in issue 161. The form is a removable cover the way the Met gets costumes ready for a new opera.

Thank you for putting this on the internet! I was thinking about padding my dress form, but "clothing" it in a bootstrap form seems way better. During the video I thought a couple of times: "Wow, she is so in peace with herself and her size, I wish I was there, too." And in the end you talked about your own vulnerability and I realized: "Okay, it's work everyday for all of us. But it is worth it." Thank you for that, too. I send you my love and respect.

I made one using the duck tape system, but it was both hard to put a pin in and pins came out sticky, LOL. Since I lost weight this year, I needed a new one, so I'm taping up my bootstrap pattern as i write this. I feel bad replacing my me#2, and have been giving her hugs every time I pass by her. Both because she served me well and because I want to reinforce that I love myself no matter my size. My husband, who feeds us, went keto and we started watching Dr. Ken Berry, who is a lot of fun to learn from. Only mentioning it because I'm 60 years old and wish I knew it was actually possible to break my carb addiction and fix my lifelong IBS. But seriously, give Freya a hug! She is beautiful :) Oh dear, I just noticed I actually commented 2cyears ago!

I have been battling weight issues for all of my life; I am now 77 and finally back to my high school weight...don't get excited, it's 196 lb. Still, I now know that this is only an issue for the insecure people who live to judge others, and fie on the lot of them! To hell with insecurity! I wake up every morning and thank God for another wonderful day, fluffy butt and all! I have often though of stuffing my little craft store dress form into a custom form and you were absolutely right! It looks great and I will do the same; thank you for being an inspiration. Illegitimati non carborundum sunt!

I love it. I wish there were these when I was sewing all my clothes! I always wanted to see how I would look in an outfit in the fat ladies( that is what my dad called them) catalogs I got....I would say to me "do I look like that?" when I saw other plus size women in nice outfits. I saw me in the mirror but never me on the streets....hard to explain. But I love this channel and you. Thank-you from the teen I was 50 years ago!

Seeing your success with the hard dress form as the interior, I am going that route. I will try to post pics when completed.

I’ve been contemplating making one of these Bootstrap forms for a long time. In fact I’ve already purchased the pattern and the base fabric. It was good to see how it comes together. I’ve got to get the rest of the support materials and then I can start. In my very limited experience of trying to self draft a pattern based on an existing garment and fit it to myself, with only my kids to help me, I figured out that to do much sewing for myself, I was going to need a dress form. I’m hoping mine matches me as well as yours matches you. It is encouraging to see your efforts and I appreciate your vulnerability to help us out in our sewing adventures. Your dress form looks great and I bet it will be a huge asset to you. Edited to add: I can’t believe you’re 40! I’m 44 and I thought you were at least 10 years younger than me.

As a big woman myself, I could so fully relate to the whole experience and emotions that played out in this whole clip. I could sense the dread and apprehension WITH you, in laying everything so bare, in front of a wide audience, who could use their anonymity to lash out cruel remarks, if they so wished. I could sense the anxiety in me build up throughout the stitching together, and finally filling up, of Freya. And....Voila! You did it!! The initial "shock" or disappointment, if you like, at seeing a dress form totally in contrast to what our preconceived minds are accustomed to, waned into relief, and the realisation that the shape that emerged, was as REAL as could be! The shape of a woman who hopefully lives life to the full. Maybe indulging a little bit too much here and there, but hey, also a woman who definitely exudes fun, warmth and compassion. What was so interesting to me, was that the longer I stared at Freya, summing up her features, the more she became REAL and someone I could fully relate to. The choice of fabric was spot on, too, adding to the overall soft, approachable vibe. You go, Girl!
