Sorry to hear you are losing your Joanns store. The one closest to me closed several years ago and they reopened but at a much farther distance. I very seldom go there anymore as it is just too far. I did shop online at Joann.com the other day and found what I wanted and the shipping was cheaper than the gas to drive over there. I do have access to another fabric store about 25 miles away so am not totally cut off.
