We got a flyer in the paper Sunday - St. Paul Sunday Pioneer Press and it was from WalMart - It said "Over 2000 stores now carry fabric" or words to that effect! AU CONTRAIRE!!!!! Not in St. Paul - meaning West St. Paul and the Midway WalMart! I called them and they said they were NOT getting fabric in. So it actually means squat, nada, nyet, not on your life, forget it, Charlie!!!!!!
So, as before JoAnn's moved out, St. Paul has only ONE fabric shop and it isn't even a quilt shop. And, they are super nice and have good fabric, but not enough of what quilters generally use (assuming that quilt shops carry mostly cotton). I have asked them to stock more cotton, but in that particular area, they don't "cotton" to quilters (to coin a phrase!!!) So, that takes care of that for us. Edie
