Next time you’re at the shop, be sure to stop and admire the new mural on our west wall! The “Unity Tree” is a mosaic made up of smaller tiles, 350 of which were painted by Ames community members from just 18 months old to 80+ 😁 The project was led by the Ames Noon Kiwanis Club with support from several other community partners. We’re so proud to be the home for this gorgeous piece of art!!

We’ve already been loving seeing all the fabrics everyone has been pairing with the “Scenery” collection by Elizabeth Hartman!
We have some of her super cute patterns that can be made out of these fabrics, or they make the best blenders.
