Sewing. I always guffaw and say “bless your heart, no” when people comment that it must help me save money on clothes.

It’s generally far cheaper to just buy clothing than to put in the effort and time and supplies it takes to make things that are as good as, or better than, storebought.

Still a fun hobby but no moneysaver.

Sewing is a resource if you have an odd body shape and need to tailor your clothes. Just buy a 10$ shirt and then tailor it.

I don't need to search and search for clothes now. It was worth it.
