I made clothing before I ever made a quilt. My first quilt has 1/2" seam allowances. I am mostly a self taught quilter.

CAS49OR,
My daughter makes all sorts of costumes for Anime conventions that she attends and uses lots of quilting techniques in her garments, but she has no interest in making quilts. In the last few years she's learned to use a rotary cutter,
machine quilting,applique, binding; she's a lefty and has had to figure out things that I being a righty can't teach her.
She makes beautiful garments.
