Last Thursday we modelled on the stand. At first I really enjoyed doing it as it was going quite well. First we had to put the modelling tape on the stand which was pretty simple apart from the armhole which was a tad fiddly but went okay. Then the calico came out. First we had to place it on the stand so it was laying straight on the centre front but then when we were cutting the neck so it curved properly and I cut a bit too far and it basically went downhill from here. We then had to fold darts into the calico which I also did wrong as I didn't match it up with the seams on the stand. After this everything else on the stand went pretty smoothly however as soon as I took it off the stand and had to measure it and draw the darts in properly and add labels I realised how badly I had actually done it which is fairly frustrating but I had a good time doing it.
