Marking the form:
-
When done with the second layer, mark your waist by drawing a line with
permanant marker.
-
Mark the center front, back and sides.
-
Measure with a yard stick from the floor, where the bottom of the form
will be. This should be placed at least at the fullest hip measurement.
(about 9" below the waist) Draw a parallel to the floor at this measurement
all around the form.
Cutting off the form:
-
Cut the form (t-shirt and all) off going up the back in a zig zag fashion.
Put one hand up inside the bottom to act as guide for the scissors. This
is where those curved scissors come in handy. Work quickly, and if you
can zig zag (about 3" each) it makes the putting back togeather a little
easier. This is a good place to take a break, your model will need it at
this point.
-
Put the form back togeather at back and seal the edges back snuggly.
Use several strips of tape so it won't come loose.
