  1. Browse clothes
  2. “Oooh, that’s pretty!”
  3. Check size
  4. Shucks, too small
  5. Buy it anyway

    You just blew my mind. I mean, I realize it must take a lot of knowledge and practice to get a good result, but…

    Wow, if I could get whatever design in exactly my size…

      Sewing is an excellent skill to learn! Start small, learn to read patterns, don’t be afraid to call something practice and just rip the threads back out to give it a second try.
