Sew-n-Sew has not only lasted, but it is thriving, as it has continued to grow since its opening.
They say the timing wasn’t right two years ago because we were in the middle of the pandemic, but the timing is ideal now because Roxanne retired from her career at Yavapai Regional Medical Center, working in community outreach for 16 years.
“I wanted to make sure we were going to last,” Roxanne said about not having the grand opening sooner.
Roxanne, who was raised in the Chino Valley area, said she has wanted to work full time on Sew-n-Sew for 30 years. “I was tired of going into Prescott for fabric,” she said.
Sew-n-Sew has not only lasted, but it is thriving, as it has continued to grow since its opening.
The store sells fabrics, notions, upholstery, pins, snaps and buckles. The Hulls also offer classes on sewing and quilting and provide alterations.
Russ watched the shop while Roxanne was doing her day job. He built the shelving and performs his favorite task, which is repairing sewing machines.
“We continue to get new people every day,” Roxanne said.
Sew-n-Sew is prepared for the holidays. They obtain most of their quilts from Undercovering Quilts, another business in Chino Valley.
Sew-n-Sew will offer a class for men in January. Russ also enjoys quilting. Recently, he made a quilt to use in cars for a friend. QCBN
