More about JillStraw
I recently started making clothes for myself. I love sewing! Creating or up-cycling wardrobe items for myself is so satisfying. After starting with "hard stuff" I'm finding clothes easy, though I still have plenty to learn! I love burdastyle. When I need an explanation on how to get what's in my head out, the answers are always here.
