What is a good resource for learning how to make clothing yourself?

Asked by aeschylus (665points) April 14th, 2009

I’m looking for a good website that will describe how to make clothing from scratch. What do you grow/ raise and how do you best cultivate the plants/animals and extract the raw materials? How do you spin thread, make cloth, and then cut and bind it into shirts/pants/blankets etc.? I’m not talking knitting here; I mean real thorough knowledge about becoming completely self-sufficient.

It would also be cool to know how the finest clothing is made. For instance, how does one make a fine bespoke suit?
