People were at least polite in the store and there were a few chairs so it could have been far worse. I ended up getting enough material to do the top of the queen size quilt I want to make along with the batting for it. I think it was worth it but next year I might just shop online.

I was there kind of late (around 8 pm) but there were still people in line. Most only had a few items for cutting but there was one lady who I would guess had 25 or 30 bolts of the flannel. I think she got every shade of a color they had, no prints, mostly solids. I felt sorry for the cutter but no one was nasty that I saw. Even the staff mentioned that people were mostly nice this year. They had five cutters there, and it seemed like everything went smooth. I was out in around a half hour. Payment line was very very short.
