I wouldn't bother buying a cover. Just draft or drape a
rincess-seam sloper on yerself, with a center front seam and two
yelets at CF, at your bustline. Then you just need the zipper
I think $39.95 sounds lke a deal compared to doing this--leaves you more time
to sew something fun! Of course, you do need to fit the ready-made cover, too.

Cin, I wouldn't bother buying a cover. Just draft or drape a
rincess-seam sloper on yerself, with a center front seam and two
yelets at CF, at your bustline. Then you just need the zipper. I made a cover
ut of canvas because I found the material the stock cover is
ade of to be awfully flimsy (but I was also struggling with a too-large form).

Subject: [h-cost] Uniquely you replacement cover
Ladies & gents,
I'm in the market for a new cover for a recent adopted Uniquely You
dressmakers dummy. A friend pulled her out of a dumpster. She's been
washed & in the process the cover shredded & must be replaced. I'd
shop locally but there's no one near who seems to carry covers only.
I'm forced to check online. Does anyone have info, good or bad about
this vendor? http://www.sewvacdirect.com/uniquelyyou-cvr5.html The
price is pretty reasonable. I've never heard of them before.
In the meantime, I see about finding a replacement stand for her.
Thanks all!
