Our local Super WM just remodeled, and they no longer offer fabric on the bolt. The fabric dept. has been reduced to one dinky aisle with little fabric and that's all in pre-cut, packaged lots. I wasn't looking for patterns, but after I got home I realized I didn't see any sewing patterns. Now, I'm reduced to Hancock's and Hobby Lobby. We have no LQS--the last of those closed a few years ago. I have to drive 50 miles farther for that.
