Oh but you can Im! All you need you do is fling fabric at your machine with gay abandon, do some free motion quilting down the sides of jig-saw pieces and ta-dah!!!! You have a thing. I'm not saying for one minute that it'll fit or look as good as the rest of the stuff on the light side but you can wear it gardening. (Wellies=no hems!!!). Very therapeutic!
@Pearl 's gonna have a go. Aren't you pearl?!?!?!?! 
Perhaps I can use my American English combined with my bi-sewist abilities to translate this for
@Iminei . I am equally sewversant in both the Light and Dark sides.
"You can do it Im, it isn't that different from piecing. Relax and pretend you are sewing two odd shaped block pieces together using your excellent seaming skills. Use a simple pattern and biff-bam-booey you've got a garment made. It might not be as well finished as something made by pure Lightsiders but it's still OK for casual wear in the house or yard. You don't even need to do a proper hem if you're not wearing it in public." Then she goads Pearl to try garment sewing.
A simple tee pattern really is forgiving though. And for you reluctant Darksiders, if you can sew consistent seam allowances and press your seams as you go we can walk you through garment making. We start simple and work from there.
Back OT,
@datcat23 these are very nice tees. Add me to the list for the teapot one.
