They do have good sales. I'm waiting for another 50% off sale!

I hope you have as good of experience at your JoAnns as I did yesterday. I haven't really had to bad of experiences at any of the JoAnns in Spokane but yesterday I guess everyone was just in an exeptional mood. I guess you don't find that much this time of year.
Yes that is a storage box. I was going to put patterns in it which I still may but right now I am cleaning my sewing room so I just put alot of whatever in it. Maybe your JoAnns
will have them. I wish I had gotten more. I"m an hour away from town though. I hope next time I go they will have some.

1 of these days when I get my sewing room cleaned up I will take a picture of my dog fabric stash. I wouldn't be able to lay it all out (that would take a month) but I can show what its in.
It is fun to collect. You don't find it everyday. Most people carry cat stuff but no doggie. It makes the search a little more challenging but fun.

I love the Joanns at Five Mile!

You say you grew up an hour from Spokane. Thats about how far it is for me. Ritzville. Yes Log Cabin Closing is a shame.
I was there for the final day. Saying good bye to Pam Clarke was sure sad.
The Joanns I normally go to is the Five Mile. The Valley 1 on Pines is moving out by the mall. I have to find out when the first day is. Sometime next month. Maybe you should make plans for a trip up with your quilty friend for the event. :thumbup: I can't wait.

So glad you had a good experience! I usually have no problems at the one near my home and hubby just loves finding goodies in the clearance section.
In Rochester, NY visiting DS for his bday. Brought my coupons and will just happen to hit Joanns when shopping for the ingredients for his traditional bday lasagna dinner. It is a super store with oodles of things to choose from. Will probably use my coupon on a book...unless they are on sale. lol

I just wished I lived closer to town. Well on the other hand I guess it could be a bad thing if I lived closer. Well I guess they would have to employ me. I would owe them on pay day.
