My name is Rachel and I am the creator of Sew Good and Trendy. I
began this endeavor because I wondered if there was an easier and more fashionable
way to use reusable
shopping bags and get rid of the disposable bag! I have bought the
typical canvas reusable shopping bags but I either never remember to
bring them or can’t find them in the back of our van. In addition, I would
prefer to carry a bag that has a little more style.
I started looking for eco-friendly materials to create bags. I was
so delighted with what I found that I decided to create Sew Good and
Trendy so I could share my bags with others. I also want to teach my
children how important it is to make environmentally conscious
choices because our family greatly respects the gift of our planet
and its creator.
I also want to show my children that no matter what obstacles we
face, they can be overcome. One I deal with everyday is Stargardt’s Disease (juvenile onset of macular degeneration) which
has significantly decreased my vision and is uncorrectable. I have
not let the disease slow me down...I completed a BS in Engineering and
am now a mother to
two darling girls. I want to show the world that ANYONE can
make a GREEN difference!!
I hope you truly enjoy my bags/products and feel wonderful carrying them.
Thank you for your time and for making a difference.
