Sometimes I sew my own clothes, or remake some I've bought used, or which have become too small.
Also you can knit, crochet or glue some bubbly plastic...

I am starting a sewing class next week, so I can (re)learn how to make clothes. My mom taught me years ago, but I have not sat down at a sewing machine in 20 years. I am really looking forward to it - I keep browsing in the fabric shop, fondling all of the lovely cloth, imagining the skirts I could (eventually) make.

In other news, I learned to knit the other day. I mean obviously not, like, really well - all I could make right now would be a really uneven scarf, but hey, you gotta start somewhere, right?

I thought this was a cute idea for a show poster (http://a348.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/31/l_76c8099cbdaf6880f18834c1f019ea2b.jpg) when i saw it.

I think you need to master basic skills like spelling before trying to clothe yourself.

That's a bit harsh Tatum.

BBB ... I started designing clothes when I was 9 years old, and I have a masters in design and merchandising now.

You should go to a crafts store and but those kits that guide you step by step, they are cheap and will save you money down the line on wasted material due to cutting measurement mishaps.

Good luck!

I dunno, I reckon cave people were handily stitching pelts together long before any such thing as a formal alphabet ever existed.
