Yes, I have sewn clothing, my sister's wedding gown, curtains, MTO costumes for roll-playing son, slip covers, things for kindergarten like beanbags and puppets, etc. I love hand embroidery. I don't sew much clothing, now, because of the ridiculous price of patterns and fabric. It's more fun digging for wearables (and recyclables for quilts) in thrift stores and yard sales.
