If you went into programming because you like making things, odds are high you'll like sewing too. Speaking from experience.

In my experience it will also make you appreciate aspects of physical production that don't apply to programming. For example, how precisely you need to cut fabric and join/pin/baste fabric together before you sew such that it looks nice. I'm glad I don't need to reckon millimeter precision on a ruler for my job.

What kind of stuff do you make sewing? About the only think I've ever wanted to sew was a new pocket on a jacket
