NEVER RELY ON JOANN FABRIC CUTTERS. I COULD WRITE A BOOK. I don't buy much quilting fabric from them. However, I was purchasing a panel for the center of a baby quilt, and the Joann's employee started to cut straight across without opening up the panel to cut on the panel line. I told her to stop! She said she had to cut at the one yard mark, and that was that. I said if you continue, I will not purchase the panel....the fabric was wound on the bolt crooked and cutting it straight would take off about 8 inches inside the panel, totally ruining it for any use. She argued with me until I demanded to speak to the manager. She said the manager trained her and told her to cut exactly on the yard mark and not a smidgeon more. I was shocked at the no common sense of this young lady when I showed her what would happen if she cut it her way....."that's the way I was told to cut". I finally got the manager to the table and the employee learned how to cut a panel. I left wondering how someone could not comprehend the logic. The employee was a college student!!?? An OMG moment.
