Dash - Fabrics

And finally, Dash's fabrics. He actually came to the store with me and picked out his own fabrics (with some guidance). The "fabric swatches" are copied from the websites. The colors actually don't look like these in real life, but they are an approximation. For instance, the charcoal knit is lighter and the natural cotton gauze is more yellow. They need better photographs.
