The closest Walmart to me does not have a fabric dept and I don't think it ever will. When I asked the manager (male) one day when it was going to happen I got the deer in headlights look.....but its camping, hunting, exercise dept has certainly grown......but good news is a Walmart about 25 miles away has one and it is a very good one...great fabric choices...the manager of the dept is a sewer so she knows what to buy....love it...needless to say, I now "travel" to the Walmart...........and might add a grocery piece or two to my cart!!!!
