You may remember Mary Fisher from her moving quilt exhibit here last July. Mary is a Sedona artist, author and activist. Last summer we also featured her prototype fabric. Since then, she s been busy designing for Troy Riverwoods Collection, and her first two fabric collections were just released at spring market. We are honored to carry her work, all of which is original, fresh and exciting. We look forward to seeing more collections designed by her later this year. Every Living Thing by local artist, Mary Fisher Mary s Pathways designs will carry you to an exotic place faraway. Even more than that, for every Pathways yard sold, Troy Corporation is donating $.20 to the Mary Fisher CARE (Clinical AIDS Research and Education) Fund. Quilting can make a difference in the world one yard at a time. Pathways by Mary Fisher

Class Schedule Hope you can join us for Tempting Totes on Tuesdays with Karen Barrow this July. Each Tuesday, Karen will teach a different purse pattern, each one with its own charm and functionality from casual to evening wear. You will learn a variety of techniques like quiltas-you-go, grommets or welted pockets and, of course, Karen is full of handy sewing tips. Personally, I love our black velvet clutch, but I m in love with my summer Margo Bag in yellow and white. I m strutting it around town with a big white flower pinned to it.
