My guest today is Inge deGroot, a resident of he Netherlands, who reached out and asked to share her passion project about making a custom dress form. Inge tried several methods of creating a dress form that was similar to her body shape, but was not satisfied with the results. After months of research, she was able to locate a company in her area to make a 3D scan of her body. Ultimately, those scans went to another company which produced a dress form. This dress form mirrors the shape of her body and has enabled her to create perfectly-fitting clothing for herself. Inge has created a website detailing the process so that other sewists can follow her method in their local areas. We had a fun conversation that I think you’ll enjoy even if you don’t sew your own clothes!
