Thank you! No, I am not a designer. I would like to learn to design and make my own clothes - it's one of my bucket list items! There is a six month intensive dress-making course here in New York taught by a 79-year old couturiere from Paris. It is 8 hours per week plus homework on the weekends and you learn how to make every type of dress, shirt, skirt, and trousers. It costs $3,000. The best part is that at the beginning of the course you create a dressmaker's dummy that matches your exact measurements so that everything you make in the course will fit you perfectly! Some day I will save the money and will have the time to take this course.
You will get there on Steemit hopefully! Pretty neat that you would make the dressmakers dummy and all of the items they coach you to make in you own size....sweet!
Have a great night!

Thanks! I am shooting for September 2018 to start that course.
Great job, goal set, the rest will fall into place!
Ha! Well thanks. I also have to have a lot more in place by then, but I will.
