In this episode Sherri sits down with Moda Fabric's Vice President of Operations, Josh Dunn, while on the road in Dallas Texas at the 2026 Modavation event. Josh shares a brief history of Moda fabrics and how his father, Mark Dunn, first founded the company. Josh then shares his experience of growing up and working for the company from a young age and getting to learn and work in a variety of positions and roles. He discusses some of his favorite things about his current position, his vision for Moda in present day and future, current trends in the industry, and also shares the backstory of how his now very popular fabric shirts came to be. Thank you to Josh for sharing his story and insight with us today!
