I also are not a fan of JoAnns....the store that is near me is too "jumbled" up...it is hard to find things...and the fabric is hard to look at...and the lines!!! I have found that my Hobby Lobby is so much easier to get to and so much easier to shop in..the fabric is very nice and coupons at 40% off is great for batting by the bolt...I have also received my first order from Common Threads and the fabric is beautiful and so good to sew with.. think I will stay with my two favorite places..
