Granted, this particular shop had been stolen from - whole bolts of fabric slipped off the boards - but it wasn't me, and I really resent turning around and the clerk is right in my face watching me like a hawk...
Yes, I spent money there, no, I will not go back....

You know when you are new to quilting you just have to have everything. Well that was me last summer. Made one of my few and far between trips into Vegas. Was going to go to Hancocks for the first time since I have never been in one and hoping to find anything different then what Joanns carried. First thing I noticed when I walked in there was only one other person in the store. (On a Saturday) Second thing was it seemed dirty to me. Freight everywhere. Most of the fabric was ugly and looked like it was old. Didn't smell real nice in there either. Then a man appears and asks if I need help. Told him no just looking right now. Next thing I know everytime I turned around he was there watching. Made me real uncomfortable. Needless to say I left, didn't buy anything and will never go back.
