Miracle On Main Street
 Haberman Fabrics, a FOX-2 Problem Solver


Toby Haberman with Bea Vago ("Mrs. Santa Claus"),
volunteer dressmaker "elf" Katerina Boci and the FOX-2 cameraman.

Southwest Detroit Association's annual event had an emergency. Santa and Mrs. Claus were coming to meet thousands of area kids, but the cleaners ruined Mrs. Claus' dress. With just one week before showtime, SWDA asked FOX-2 Problem Solvers for help. When FOX reporter Bill Gallagher, contacted Toby Haberman, she instantly responded with a donation of lovely red cotton velvet and white faux mink for trim, plus the crucial element, the services of Katerina Boci, a superb seamstress from the store's referral list. Katerina very generously volunteered to create a festive new holiday dress for Mrs. Claus, and did so in record time. She took measurements on Saturday and produced the perfectly fitting costume on Tuesday.

Yet another Miracle on Main Street.
