From KrisLuvsWool:
\\u201cI learned to sew on a sewing machine when I was younger. We purchased patterns, cut out the fabrics, and sewed it all up\\u2026 so I have had some rudimentary experience with sewing, but would still consider myself a beginner. That said, as a knitter who has gained an understanding of fit and ease, etc., I\\u2019ve got an interest in sewing garments again, but am a little overwhelmed about where to start and how FAR to jump into sewing and drafting patterns. I\\u2019m working on padding out my dress form to be more of a real \\u201cdouble\\u201d-- but at what stage should I bother trying to make a sloper? A Moulage? Where would you recommend getting started. I checked at our local CC but it\\u2019s not offering classes of that nature; and even with Craftsy, I\\u2019ve been overwhelmed by the choices that don\\u2019t seem curated to guide me into levels of \\u201cmaking\\u201d. How does someone \\u201clevel up\\u201d with sewing?\\u201d
