Thanks for the update but until Walmart brings fabric back to my local store (and they're not) I have no reason to go there very much, so I think I'll stick with K-Mart and Sears for layaways where they don't charge any extra fees.

Yea, they finally got it!!! first fabric and now Lay-away.
Don't mess with what "we" like......

they found out that they were wrong about fabric also.....

mm, maybe they should listen closer to the customer....

they're always right, so they say!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the info.

kmart is doing that to.

They are available on line and they are made by most of the big name quilt fabric makers. Some area quilt shops are carrying more panels in spite of the sneers that the quilt police perpetually send toward those of us who love panels. I suspect that it is the LQS' fear of the quilt police that discourages them from stocking panels. I think the LQS ought to have a separate section of the store for those of us who love panels. Then the purists wouldn't have to be subjected to the presence of the impure. froggyintexas

I was just in the quilt shop in Durant, OK and there lots of panels. I didn't have time to look at very many and didn't buy anything because I can't cram another scrap of fabric into my stash. But you gotta remember that Okies and Texans, unless they're from Dallas or Houston and maybe San Antonio, are pretty much given to hickiness, which is probably why there were so many panels there. froggyintexas (native Texan)

Thanks for the info - now if they would only bring back the fabric to my local store, I'd shop there more often.

That's great news. I also went to the Walmart nearest me yesterday and they have fabric. It is a new store and they never had fabric from the beginning but now they do!

I just read that in the paper today!! Woo Hoo!!
