Some sites I like...
Here are some interesting websites about making clothes... -
Teen Vogue DIY Projects
Big name designers tackle DIY - recycling clothes, adding embellishments, changing things around. Great step-by-step photo instructions. Living proof that recycled clothes don't have to look dodgy! -
DIY Style
Twenty-somethings Allyce and Melissa have vodcasts on their site for girls who "would love to be their own designer and have clothes that no one else has." -
Burda Style
Huge sewing community. Some projects way beyond beginners but be inspired by what folk are making at home. Check out this men's jacket, for instance, and the model that caused so much comment! -
Threadbanger
All done in fun video format with great hosts, Rob and Corrinne. Lots of out there stuff, nice emphasis on recycling clothing, some useful tutorials.-
This video episode is an intro to serger/overlockers

Project Runway Australia winner Juli Grbac
Project Runway is a cult reality TV show, where designers sew amazing clothes in just a day or two. Australian series winner Juli Grbac is a Brissie girl who started out sewing pencil cases and boxer shorts too! See this interview from her website. -
And something for local Brisbane residents - Sewing Classes
At Mt Gravatt, Ana Fataccioli teaches teens to adults to sew everything from beginners to bridalwear. Patternmaking is another specialty. See it in a magazine and you can learn to sew it! -
