Fabric stores are in very short supply in my part of Ontario and I'm a long way from the border so the U.S. is not an option for shopping.
I've never had problems at my fabricland...the staff is always helpful, friendly and knowledgeable, an they usually have what I'm looking for...I can't say I've had a bad experience there. I just make sure to shop sales, because it gets pricey! They're having a big sale now, actually. I plan to hit it up tomorrow!
