This downloadable PDF includes the pattern and full photographic instructions for sewing your own half scale female mannequin. The mannequin is proportional so can be used to help develop sewing patterns, or just as a delightful room decoration/jewellery stand.

It has a weighted base so can stand alone on a table, or for draping full length garments it can be hung at any height from the loop in the top. The height of the mannequin stood on a table is 16” (41cm).

Mannequin Measurements: Bust 17.5” (44.5cm) / Waist 13¾“ (35cm) / Hip 18” (46cm)

Full Size Equivalent: Bust 35” (89cm) / Waist 27½“ (70cm) / Hip 36” (92cm)

The mannequin has been designed to be made at home using materials you could reasonably find around the house:

• 0.5m cover fabric & 0.5m of medium weight cotton

• About a pillows-worth of wadding/poly-fil to stuff it with

• Coins, washers, rice or lentils to weight the base

• Stiff cardboard for the neck, arm holes and leg holes

• Cotton tape, ribbon or cord for the hanging loop

• A large button to anchor the hanging loop

If you wish to use this pattern some something other than private use; like a classroom. Please send me an email to 1littleseamstress@gmail.com

Pattern was great, fit together perfectly. Really enjoyed making it and so thrilled to have one – Liz

This pattern was a joy to make, and it all fit together beautifully. The instructions were very clear and helpful, the system of balance marks I think my favourite I've ever encountered, and the shaping on the pieces themselves is just stunning. - Abigail

 It is such a satisfying pattern, I love how solid and stable it is - Jenny
