We have three Walmarts here in Virginia Beach and only one of them so far has done away with the fabric department. I have also noticed that they are starting to stock much nicer fabric for quilting lately and also the smaller walmart is sporting a quilt of the month pattern with it's coordinating fabrics available. Maybe the petitions are doing some good!

I was just in one of our Walmrt SuperCenters last week..We have 3 in about a 15 mile radius..4 if you bounce out another 10 miles..The 3 I've been to all have a fabric department..The lady (nice woman) working there told me that they are supposed to be losing thier fabric department sometime next year..It sucks..That's really the only thing I got into Walmart for anymore..Our local grocery store has a fuel perks program where we earn money off gas when we buy groceries, so no need to grocery shop there anymore..Hopefully they will reconsider, but it sounds unlikely

breaks my heart to see the departments dwindle down to a small isle or a few bins in the isle !!

Keep the pressure on ! Linda may have given us hope !
