Yes.... and once in awhile I've asked for it to be ripped on the straight grain, and the gal looks at me like I have two heads. (the batiks are the worst to rip though)

You have to get a clerk with grey hair. :lol:
Mary Jo herself waited on me a few times at her awesome store near Charlotte, and we talked about that. She rips, but has trouble with the fractions of measurement. Darling lady, I think she may be in her early 80's.
