Sewing sadness

I am preparing for sewing for the last few weeks. To learn to sew. Whatever.
Today I begun, by drawing a pattern on paper. But I did not get to the point of cutting the fabric.
I just sit and watch the paper pieces and I have no idea what to do with them.
I got to the conclusion, that pants are not the ideal project to start with.
I am a bit sad, but I do not want to give up. I WILL NOT GIvE UP. No.
I might be able to sew a skirt like this.
Now back to knitting, and then we will see...
