yes I got my start with garments (had 2 little girls) in first grade they decided that meant they were poor and wouldn't have any more! When the youngest got into high school and home ec, she made her own special dresses and continues as an adult. I could never satisfy myself so I don't have anyone to sew for. My favorite has always been fancy dresses, Holly Hobbie type, long, with pinafores and lots of ruffles .
