I think starting with alterations to clothes I bought at thrift stores or sales helped me a lot - I did a lot of that before I ever tried making something from a pattern. Even making a simple garment from scratch can feel like a big project, but if you’re just taking in the sides of a shirt (for example), it’s easier to get it done and feel good (even though picking out the seams first is so annoying)
Good luck sweet baby!!
Haha, I love that kind of thing too - even if there’s a “better” off the shelf alternative, it’s fun to figure it all out and design it exactly the way you want. it feels like doing a sudoku or writing a story or something to me. I feel like I wouldn’t be working in tech if I hadn’t initially gotten into making my setup just right with scripts - before that point I just didn’t have a lot of programming tasks that caught my interest, but I learned a lot that way and eventually branched into other stuff too.
I like sewing - I make a few pieces of clothing once in a while but usually I’m just mending things or adjusting the fit of store-bought clothes so that they look better on me.
I also love gardening - growing vegetables outside and mushrooms inside. I’m pretty new to both but the mushrooms in particular are really fun - many of them grow a lot faster than vegetables, so it’s exciting to have a faster feedback loop and try little experiments to find what works.
Wow, this is so interesting! Would love to see this kind of info about other languages’ unique tech vocabulary as well.
