The Joann's Fabric up my way, Manchester, NH did the same thing before Christmas they had a huge sale and quilting books, patterns and rulers of any kind where history. I was able to purchase a few things but not like it was when they had a sale before. I find that ordering on line is better and they have more quilting things. I read in the papers that they were just bought out, so maybe the new owner wants to go crafts. Very disappointing.
Has anyone noticed the pattern department lately? All the stores in my area are going Simplicity and 1 Kwik Sew the McCalls & Butterick are gone, anyone know why?
