Katy Dill
Hi! My name is Katy, the mad woman behind "no big dill". I sew because if I didn't I would shrivel up and die. Well, that's being dramatic, but given the choice of how I would spend my free time (in the midst of being mama to 5 girls with another little one on the way) I would undeniably choose my sewing machine.
I have a very supportive husband who has never complained about my sometimes-not-so-organized stash of fabric in our closet, encroaching on his side. Ultimately, I think it's fun, to take a flat, fluid piece of material and shape and transform into something wearable and beautiful. You could say sewing is my choice of drug ;)
