I just learned last night that one close to me that is planted right next to a Joanns and in 1 plaza away from a LQS is getting their fabric back. Someone snap a pic to show me because they knew I wouldn't believe lol.

That is exactly what they did in ours before they brought back the bolts. But they did have some sales like that when they were switching the fabric for different seasons, like summer into fall, etc.

The stores sell as much of the precuts before the bolts are brought back. It is to make room for the yardage. I left last week with the precuts on sale. Hopefully next week when I get home, they will be stocking the yardage!

I found out on my last trip to our Wal Mart store, they are going to remodel and I'm hoping that is a sign that fabric will come back

i checked with walmart about fabric dept returning---they say they are returning all fabric depts to all walmart stores-i have already shopped at 1 in northern virginia a few days ago :thumbup:

They should NOT have taken the bolts out in the first place! Wal-Mart has caused a lot of businesses to close. My aunt had a fabric shop and she couldn't compete with their prices, so she closed and then the WM took out the fabric section of their store. Dirty, dirty, dirty!!!!!!

I will be making a trek tomorrow to the town that also has the one and only Walmart in the immediate area. I will see if anything is different. I wrote to management of our store and asked, but, I have not gotten any reply back yet

That is what all big box stores do. Ask any man what happens when Lowe's and Home Depot comes into town.
The mom and pop hardware stores close and then when they are closed Home depot dose not carry all of the little specialty things.

Walmart gets the bad rap but really all big box stores do the same thing and it is really we the consumer that drives the little guys out by voting with our wallet

Do you know which stores around Tulsa are getting the fabric back? The one in Bixby doesn't have any.

I was at our wal-mart(mechanicsburg pa) last week and they are setting up for new fabric they even had new fat-quarters and charm packs.. So maybe it will come back to your local wal-mart
