Title: Hello from Beaverton
Post by: Ahsoka on March 14, 2018, 02:11:44 PM: Hi, I'm Courtney. I live in the Portland area. I love sewing, constructing garments and Star Wars. I'm excited to bring my costuming to a whole other level and have some help with it. My first build is going to be Jyn Erso. I'm also planning to work on General Holdo, but finding the correct material for that may take some time.

Along with all of the resources available here and on the Legion forums, there are some great overall Star Wars costuming groups and costume-specific groups on Facebook. If that's something you're interested in, I can find and post some links for you.
