Had seen a question like this in another sub, thought about asking it in lemmy too.

Sewing! Clothes are too expensive and I've found a very cheap cloth store. It's dark and cramped and you have to dig around, but they have good stuff in there. Tank tops are the easiest garment to learn, and now I'm working on drafting a nice button up for the fancy blue cloth I found

I've always wanted to learn to sew my own clothes. I can do simple hand sewing and used to make tote bags and turned men's t-shirts into fitted T-shirts but that's as far as I ever went.
