I have an art project that I'm trying to plan out and I'm hoping you guys have some ideas for me!

This is a new type of medium for me as I don't often work with sculpture so Im very open to ideas!

Essentially I want to make a cast of something, and I'm not sure which materials to use
As a mold I am using a plastic female form bought at a mannequin shop
(similar to this : http://www.displays-store-fixtures.com/products/images/dwlhr35.gif)

I need to be able to glue onto, and stitch into the resulting cast.

I made something like this in the past using bandages and plaster, in a sort of paper mache style, and I can't use something like latex as i need to be able to poke a needle through it...I'm really just looking for suggestions for materials as Im sure there are many options I don't even know to consider!

ideas?

Thanks!
