I adore Walmart. Not sure why - a mile from home and on my way to work are reasons. It is among few which kept the fabric dept. our Joann's closed 2 stores and opened one big one farther away.hancock closed years ago. I don't quilt exclusively - toys, flowers,yo yos.baby items Etc. they do have a premium line which I like and sometimes the cheaper fabric is better for a given project. They have a decent selection of notions and supplies so I have to go 10 miles to buy interfacing, a zipper or buttons. Many brands are the same as Joann's. the best part is choice. If ya don't like WM ya don't have to shop there. Wounded warrior wife - please thank your husband for his service. Hes one reason we have any choices at all.
