Description

Seamstress, quilter, mom of three, Rachel Yearick, loves to sew so much and has sewn for so long that she doesn't even remember learning how. At some point she found herself with a big batch of tossed king size, hotel sheets from the second hand shop and started experimenting with natural dying. Eventually these sheets got cut into pieces and became a source for her dress fabrics. She now makes and sells beautiful dresses with quilt-square panels that run down the front. The enjoyment that comes from making something from nothing is huge in her life and is a philosophy that flows directly into how she runs her one-woman, garment business. She reminds us that our creative path can sometimes meander more than we planned for, that having big dreams may demand a big dose of flexibility and that what often has the biggest impact over time are all the tiny bits we find a way to fit into our day...right here, right now, with what we have on hand.
