Keep that rosy outlook! As for me, the more choices, the better. Maybe we will be forced to beat the bushes for other places to shop and find a real jewel somewhere. My best find was the garment district in Los Angeles. I went there with my son. All of the shops are holes in the wall, just filled with fabrics from all over the world, and very reasonable. I only went to 4 stores and spent over $100 for bags of fabric. Maybe I'll get to go again someday.
