At Fabric Mart: Everybody is a busy buddy.

The upstairs is a buzzing this week as the wholesale department

prepares for the upcoming DG Expo in New York City.

There are a lot of tasks that need to be completed before we leave for New York
and the show is getting closer!

So we're keeping ourselves busy by making
the headers that will be transported and shopped at the show

as well as mailers (sample swatches) we will send to all of our wholesale customers

to allow them to see our new fabric.
