It's that time of year where we celebrate our Favorite Things! This year we wanted to do a little something different and really highlight our amazing team that works so hard sewing up and sharing the latest RCF fabrics and inspiration. We are so grateful to have such a talented group of seamstresses sewing up, promoting, and rooting each other on! These women exemplify our incredible community and we don't know what we'd do without them.
Our teams are selected to work with us for about a six month period and then we switch things up for a new round of sewists. Our next team call will be at the end of this week so we wanted to give you a little glimpse at what it's like working with RCF. Our team will be sharing their experiences and favorite projects throughout the week!
I first discovered RCF a little over 4 years ago. I have been hooked ever since my first order of 2 yards. The whole community is amazing! The inspiration that I gain from the FB page is so amazing. I love knowing that there are others out there who get my obsession and love for sewing. I love sewing for my kiddos, because seeing their faces light up is just the best. But, I also am so grateful that I can sew for myself and make things that fit my unique body and style. I have never once had a swimsuit that I felt comfortable and confident in until I made my own. It is just such a thrill to be able to do that, and I’m so glad I can buy amazing quality fabric with amazing prints.
It has been so fun being able to be a deeper part of the process at RCF these past 6 months! The creativity that goes on behind the scenes is unreal. I swear my jaw drops in awe every time a new collection is dropped. Seriously. How do they keep coming up with new and unique designs that are just always amazing?! It has been such an honor to do what I love while promoting a business that I love and support. It’s been a joy watching the growth of Raspberry Creek over the last 4 years, and I can’t wait to see what they come up with next!
Hi, I am Summer Heaton. I have been sewing clothes for my kids for about three years. I knew about RCF the first month when I started my sewing journey. I love that RCF provides a lot of good gender neutral prints, so I can easily find cute fabric that my boys enjoy. We used to live in Utah so we loved to go pick up our orders and the people there were so nice and sweet. We definitely love RCF’s customer service. I also love being in the RCF team, because I have learned so much from other seamstresses.
Congrats! So happy to see you hit a new milestone! I can’t wait to see what you will bring to us next.
Hi, my name is Sarah. I discovered Raspberry Creek Fabrics 7 years ago and was so excited to find a local to me fabric company. I would meet Diana or Tami in a parking lot to pick up my order from my “fabric dealer”. I have loved being part of the Raspberry Creek team and community. I have found great friends who I can ask questions, bounce ideas off of, and celebrate successes with. I love having a place where I feel like I belong.
Ahhh, the dream to be an RCF strike sewist. But it’s so much more than free fabric! Getting to see the new designs before they are presented to the public creates a euphoria similar to a child on Christmas morning. Then there is the rush when the fabric arrives at your doorstep (or if you are blessed enough to pick up at the store-that’s the level of amazing all need to experience). But creating a garment that my kids go crazy over is the absolute best part., Followed by the cheering section of everyone on the team who are always incredible with encouraging words or a helpful suggestion if needed. I love everything about RCF and so happy I found this community and started building my stash before I even knew how to sew knits.
My son rocked this patriotic design at Mount Rushmore. My daughter is so in love with this suit she wears it as casual wear as well as in the pool.
It's been so much fun being part of the RCF blog team! While I still have some RCF waiting for me to sew, I just wanted to mention a few of my favs so far! For my son, it's got to be his Binary Code t-shirt in French terry (Sunflower Seams Dogwood). He's probably worn this shirt more than any other in his wardrobe since I made it. Makes my heart happy to see him love something mom-made so much.
And my favorites for my daughter and me are our RCF leopard print swimsuits (my very first swim design, Wild Seeds Palmetto). She would wear leopard print all day everyday if she could, and this swim print allowed her to keep that going, even at the pool! It made the most fun, beautiful suits and we’ve been making memories in them all summer!
Can’t wait to see what prints are coming next! Thanks so much for having me & Happy Sewing!!
