I mostly make pants and long sleeved shirts, since those make up the vast majority of my wardrobe. I like to use brightly colored fabrics or ones with floral prints.

Sewing isn't that hard, lonelygirl! If you want to start, I'd suggest making one or two things from simple patterns first, so that you have a general idea of how garments fit together. Then you can start making your own designs and patterns, or modifying existing patterns. There are lots of good sewing books that show you step by step how to do things to.

And of course, it all goes a lot faster if you have a sewing machine.

I wish I weren't so lazy. There are so many things I want to try to learn in life--such as painting, good photography skills, etc. etc. etc.

I wonder when I'll have the time?!!!
