Yes! I love making my own clothes because it kills me to see a cotton skirt in a store that costs $48 and know that I can make it for $3 - so I do! I usually peruse the stores for ideas and then just get fabric and make things myself, it's MUCH cheaper and way more personal and everything always fits me really well!
I make skirts, shorts, tops, dress pants, casual pants, blouses, suits (skirt/pants/jacket) and formal and casual dresses. However, I buy all my jeans, running clothes and swimsuits pre-made.

Yes, I love to crochet in particular. I make scarves, hats, jackets, shrugs, socks, robes, purses, hairbands.....I'm willing to give almost anything a try. Most of it is my own design, because premade patterns are almost never exactly right for me. Right now, I'm working on a cloak that I intend to felt. A lot of the stuff I make I give away as gifts, but I wore a jacket I made all winter and I have a couple of shrugs that are perfect for spring.

Hi yellowstonedog,
I did at many times wanted to be a fashion designer, but alas, it didn't happen :) became an engineer instead.
i only made clothes for teddy bears when my mom taught me and my sister. not for myself though :)
Are you interested in making one yourself or already are doing. *winks

I'm a guy... but I DID make several Frostline kits in my late teens:
A down ski jacket
A down vest
An anorak.
A down sleeping bag
Bike bags
All are now almost 25 years old and still doing well.

I don't necessarily make my own clothes, but I do modify them to give them their 'wadaciousness'.

Yes I do. I make jumpers and blouses for myself. I also make pj's, bathrobes, and pants/t-shirt sets for my kids.
