With gas and fabric prices up I would rather spend money on fabric! LOL
Prayer is wonderful, but sometimes the squeaky wheel gets the grease. Try to get some friends together and write a letter requesting that they carry fabrics and other good craft/sewing items. It appears the management at each store have some say in what is carried. Bottom line is the bottom line. If they think they will make money carrying something, they will stock it. So find everyone likely to shop there to sign your letter/petition and see what happens! Money talks. (And if they pray too, it can't hurt.)
