MarBeth Boutique

As children, we were surrounded by quilts, other sewn items, embroidered and crocheted items and woodworking done by our mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, grandfather, and great-grandfather. So, we developed a passion for sewing and needlework and for creating our own designs. We have sewn and designed some of our own clothes. When we went to college, while we were pursuing practical degrees, Marilyn made extra money by selling her own line of crocheted and knitted miniature items for doll houses at a local store. One of her designs was published in a craft magazine. Since then, she has created designs for other needlework items which have won prizes and have been published. Elizabeth has worked for several fabric and craft companies in management positions. Both Elizabeth and Marilyn worked for Lee Wards Craft Bazaar as store employees and instructors. We are fans of HGTV and Project Runway, and are inspired to create our own designs for clothing and accessories on Zazzle.
