So in answer to your question. Yes, tailor is fun (most of the time) and once you get a client base going it really seems to pick up. I was commisioned to make 20 imperial uniforms the other day and WOW that was a blast doing that and getting paid hehe.
You are lucky! Uniform orders are one if the cases where you can get away with doing factory runs of everything so its possible to get 4 sockets without a huge amount of trouble.
It's great to hear that a combat guy has decided to go artisan 
Crafting is really fun. Tailoring is crafting, but it is a little different than other crafting professions, as the quality of the resources don't really matter. If you are looking for the "resource quality" competition thing, then tailoring is not where you might want to go, however, having the ability to wear whatever you want whenever you want and pick the exact colors you want is definitely terrific, as tailors get 255 colors to choose from (i.e. we have 21, Ibelieve,shades of a purple).
Be aware though... since the last patch (the wookiee armor patch), tailors have been having trouble getting 4 sockets. We aren't too sure if this is intentional (the 4 sockets thing), NJ said it is probably intentional. Perhaps the quality of the resources do matter now, that I am not sure. Whatever your decision, g'luck and have fun
By the way, I LOOOOOOOOOVE tailoring!
