Meet the Maker

My name is Rachel Nevarez and my mom taught me how to sew when I was 7 years old. In high school, I wanted to be different and heavily invested in sewing and thrifting my own wardrobe.

I never stopped sewing and built a 20+ year career for myself in the Los Angeles fashion industry as a designer, product developer, and production manager.

Today I am a wife, mom, and fashion instructor spending my free time, you guessed it, sewing!
