contact details of a lady who tailor makes dressmaking models. In 2004, when I got
a quote from her <st1:PersonName w:st="on">the</st1:PersonName>y were about
$650.00 each. They are beautifully made. We couldn’t afford <st1:PersonName
w:st="on">the</st1:PersonName>m on our budget but I have one at home I collected
from somewhere many years ago. If quality is an important factor and you can
afford <st1:PersonName w:st="on">the</st1:PersonName>m, this maybe <st1:PersonName
w:st="on">the</st1:PersonName> way to go. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

w:st="on">the</st1:PersonName>m. They can be slightly adjusted and cost about
