have a look here. I find it hard to get clothes in my size, being skinny as a spaghetti noodle. So I figure I'll try my hand at making my own clothes.
To do that I'd need (or want) a dress dummy. This link is a tutorial on how to make your own.

Clothes will be going up in cost, just like bread and everything else under the sun, so it seems like a good idea to get ready for the economic poopy-hole we will one day be living in. I used just ducktape over a cheap cotton undershirt, and that seemed to work fine.

That one's not very informative.

Try these:
Duct Tape Dummy
Molded Papier-Mâché Form

I've thought about making one for myself. When I started doing the mountain man thing, my wife said, "There's the sewing machine, and there's the instructions."

she let you use her sewing machine?! Dang! I had to buy my own (and now the kids use it and throw it all out of time).
