I checked with the store manager where I am yesterday. There will be what they are calling a remodel, but which really will be rearranging the store to undo some of the "damage" done by the more extensive remodel last year. The fabric department was supposed to be ready by the end of May but has been postponed until the end of June. The manager here said fabric will be available the last week in June and will be up and running full blast by the first week in July. He said the fabric will be by the bolt and there will be a cutting table and clerks. He also said there will probably not be as great a selection as there was before, but I know that if the customers show up and the department is profitable, the store will add stock. That's the way supply and demand works. I am hoping the quality of the fabric in the store is as good or better than the fabric I ordered online from WalMart.com. If not...
It is probable that all stores are on different schedules. To get accurate information, call your store and talk to your manager.
