Our Joanns is super!! Yeah, sometimes there's lines but they usually have two or three people cutting and 1 or 2 checking out. Our's carries good fabric, notions, and books. The sales staff is friendly and helpful.
No matter where I get fabric I usually fold my own. Whether it's at Walmart, an LQS or the Eleanor Burns tent in Paducah. It helps the lines go faster and I know how I want it folded.
