In my area, Hancock has relocated the fabric to a farther corner of the store. Looks like the store is being taken over by crappy wrought iron knick-knacks, artifical flowers, vases, etc. I used to like going to Hancock because I knew the cutters and it was nice talking to them. Now they got kids who know nothing about fabric - they just cut. Joann's moved a couple miles away and became a superstore and at my age I don't relish wandering around the store because the staff can't direct me to the correct area.
I have become an online shopper and I'm very fond of my UPS driver and my Fed-X deliveryman LOL.
Really sad because I used to enjoy walking the aisles, feeling the cotton - Guess this is what they call PROGRESS.
