Martin Luther King & President Barack Obama

With the closing of one year and the opening of another, many of us who live by our planners often find ourselves marking off holidays and special occasions in our new date books and office/home calendars as soon as we get them. After the days off work and the days of vacation or celebration are securely implanted in our memory banks and written with countdown in mind, then come the doctors appointments, pta meetings, business conferences, and the list goes on and on.

My Santa Wish List…From J&O Fabrics Facebook Fans!

With so many new fabrics delivered to our J&O Fabric Store each day, seems just when I’ve found the perfect ones to add to my Santa wish list, another print or design comes in and distracts me even more. Guess that is the blessing and curse of working at a place that feeds your creative needs so consistantly. Like a drug dealer and his dope fiend, instead of one more hit, hit me with one more yard and I am flying high!

J&O Fabrics Celebrates Memorial Day!

 As many Americans dust off their summer patio furniture, pull out their trusty grills, tame their out of control yards, and gear up for a guarenteed weekend of food and fun, still others are remembering loved ones lost, dreams deferred, and the lives of those who stood on the frontlines and so bravely defended what they believed in til the end. From traditional trips to memorial sites to honor fallen hero’s and mourn the loss of life, to the gathering of friends and family to celebrate life and the beginning of the summer season, all weekend long it seems wherever you turn, there are flags waving at half staff, parades, picnics, poppy donations, and reminders of what makes America the land of the free and the home of the brave.

J&O Fabrics Celebrates National Flag Day

Every year, the week of June 14 is designated as “National Flag Week.” During National Flag Week, the president usually issues a proclamation urging U.S. citizens to fly the American flag for the duration of that week in honor of their patriotic love for the ‘land of the free’ and the ‘home of the brave’. The flag is often displayed on all government buildings, while parades and events in celebration of America’s national flag and everything it represents are held across the country.
