Aw thanks!
Sewing isnt too tough to learn, it takes a lot of patience and trial and error. I recommend mocking patterns up in cheap fabric or muslin prior to the good fabric you choose, I cant count how many nearly-finished-oh-gawd-the-size-doesnt-work pieces I have in my studio.
Try some basic patterns from places like Butterick/Simplicity before you launch into making patterns from scratch, then youll have an idea of what a pattern needs to function.
Oooh and sewing classes are always a good idea if you can find one near you. I wish Id taken more of them when I was younger.
