Oh, forgot to tell you - there are several of the Joann's Etc. stores in the area - one in north Phoenix near my old place and one in north Scottsdale -
Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Store
9189 E Indian Bend Rd, Scottsdale, AZ 85250
(602) 334-9114
It's just off the 101 freeway at Indian Bend - very easy to get to.
