Its not just the quilter out there. Its the mother of school kids that need fabric a days notice to make a outfit for a play or suplies to do school projects.
Don't get me wrong I like to buy my fabric at where ever I find some I like. There are still mothers and grandma that like to make clothes for the kids. When you live in the country and have to drive 40 + miles one way to a shop that has material and other supplies.
Walmart came into town and drove the Winn's and other fabric store out of business. And now that want to stop carring the stuff the public need. They can make it up in other area if sales are down in the fabric dept. This is the last i will say on this topic.
