Work through the following sets of videos, ALL of the ones off the first URL as it's a series of about 6 if I recall and also all of those in the second.  There are no shortcuts other than sitting down with the tools and learning as much as you can.

Learning to use Blender in general there are lots of great tutorials. For example:

I started working my way through learning to make clothes for Second Life. As I've progressed I've written tutorials. You may find them helpful. See: Second Life & Blender Clothes Tutorials. There is information for finding all the things you need to get started. However, the very basics of how to use Blender are covered better in other tutorials. There are lots and lots of video and written tutorials about how to use Blender.

Making mesh clothes for animated characters is a complex aspect of 3D modeling. In general beginners use Blender because it is a free program with awesome capabilities. Those awesome capabilities make the learning curve steep. It is probably not something you will learn in a month.

There are other free tools. They tend to have less capability and fewer users using them with Second Life. Blender is the preferred tool for use with SL.

Sassy's link to Machinimatrix.org is great. I started learning how to make sculpty things from Gaia. Gaia's mesh tutorials are also great. You'll find I link to some of them from my tutorials rather than repeat the information.

Good luck.
