About

Woven dobby and jacquard fabric manufacturer. Robert Fortinsky, whose parents and grandparents were weavers, founded Fortune Fabrics on November 14, 1949. Initially the company wove rayon and silks for dress goods. In 1955, the company entered the neckwear business. Hard work enabled the business to continue expanding and in 1967 the company started weaving upholstery fabrics and added the selling arm of the company, Wyoming Weavers. In 1984, Robert's daughter, Jill, joined her father to continue the tradition of a family business. With father and daughter management at the helm, this upholstery mill continues to satisfy manufacturers with its personalized service, custom styling, fast turn around and low minimum orders. Already prized for the styling flexibility made possible by its small size, the mill strengthened its assets by enhancing its dobby equipment, adding jacquard looms and new state of the art warping equipment. Fabrics are made with a combination of yarns: polyester, olefins and nylons, to give the most innovative styling on the contract market today.

    Quality, Service & Fantastic People

    We were so lucky to find Wyoming Weavers here on Maker’s Row. Our company came to Wyoming Weavers with a project which had been passed over by others because of time and developmental requirements. Wyoming rose to all the challenges of our project and then some. Their team was always there for us - answering our concerns and solving our development snags. Their staff delivered unparalleled expertise, experience and service – they made the impossible happen. We are so pleased with the quality of our custom fabrics which were put directly into commercial use. Highly recommend!
