What should I make for my FIRST project?

I am starting to get into sewing.  I haven't really done anything on my own without my mom.  What would be the best project for me to start off doing?  I'm open to ALL ideas!!

Thanks a million!!

Welcome to the world of sewing.  Some of the first things I made on my own were, simple rod pocket curtains for my kitchen, pillows, kids shorts, and a shopping bag.  Before I knew it I had made my own wedding gown!
If I was starting I'd try a shopping bag maybe one that isn't lined.  Pillow cases are easy too and so are receiving blankets.  I could go on.  Check out the tutorials on this site.  Youtube can help if you get stuck or are a visual learner.  Good luck!
