Ours never left, but I can imagine the turmoil that would have caused if it did. We have 2 LQS here, and they are expensive. I have noticed that they have done some re-arranging and it seems like the shelves are fuller now. WTG Wal-Mart!

I was in the Lacey, WA store today and they have just put in a real fabric area -- bolts and bolts -- some quilting quality, lots of kid designs and flannels

I am so glad ours is coming back! I have to say that i am rather shocked that they are bringing them back, i thought that would have been a done deal no matter how much people complained they would not have brought them back but i guess not :)

That is great news!, thanks for letting us know

I sure do wish they would bring our fabric dept. back

I read about this a couple of months ago. WalMart had lost many customers after they removed some items, and they had plans to return 8500 products to the shelves. We have a new WalMart that didn't have fabric to begin with so I doubt that they put it in my store. However, there are two stores within 15-20 miles and both had fabric departments, so I'm hoping they return fabrics to those stores.

now that is good news....
bet Sam Walton turned over in his grave when they started
doing away with all the fabric.

Wonder if it will be BTY or precuts? :?

they took out the by the yard and put in precuts so i am assuming we will be getting the by the yard fabrics back. I have heard that since they have remodeled our store and removed the fabric dept. that our store has lost lots of money.
