Plus Size Forum

Have any of you ever tried DIY plus-size clothing?

Some of you may be interested in making your own clothing. It can be cheaper, more customizable, and you can get the size and comfort level right.

I'd love to hear your experiences in something like this!

Never heard of it before, but sounds interesting to check out!

Just basically you make your own clothing with a sewing machine and all that.

My wife knows how to crochet, I'm surprised she hasn't tried making some clothing yet. She also used to know how to sew since she worked on our High School's drama club and she worked on the costumes.

My daughter had a friend in school that would make her own prom dress each year.

Now she's in college for fashion design.

She's super good at it. That will be her dream come true.
