Mary Pass

Mary started sewing from store bought patterns in 1999 and almost immediately began adapting them to fit her wants and ideas for how they should be. She kept that passion for designing and working with her hands and graduated from the University of Minnesota with a degree in Clothing Design. Mary enjoys making and creating all types of things and continues to design and create clothing and accessories and has participated in several art and craft fairs and fashion shows.
