I really cannot remember when they stopped selling fabric, but I remember Penney's and many more local chains sold fabric at one time. I don't have any of it as evidence, but my memory of decent fabric departments is intact. I remember being surprised when I could no longer buy fabric at Penney's or Sears or (in my home town) Ball Stores, etc.
Of course, this was long before Walmart etc.
