Sorry. Had read some where else some one went to an actual store and had found full yards of material and said they were quite affordable and a good selection. I will be moving back to Il and Wis area m thought maybe you would give me heads up if the actual stores did have. My daughter is not a walmart fan she does Target , so I don't know if her local stores have fab. Walmart still has here around me.

I grew up a few blocks from a Ben Franklin store. As a kid I always spent my allowance there!
Sadly our nearest cities store closed, but there is still one in Delavan Wis. Its a nice store, prices about the same as Hobby Lobby, but they do have some 30's fabrics, ect.

Always wanted to go to Hobby Lobby! Forgot the opened those stores. Never got a chance to stop when I was driving truck. But I think hubby would have tied me up after cramming the truck full of stuff when Kmart was selling off cheap, and closing there stores. I was into crotcheting . And I bought out all the 13" dolls (i beleive) will no for sure what size when I clean out my storage. It was a store in Winslow Arizona. He asked me where are we going to sleep on the truck. I told him he would figure it out. He did. Took him a while to fill every nook and cranny, but we could get to the bed!I gave some away , but I should still have atleast 100 of those still squirreled away in storage. The crazy things we do!!!!

I am no longer driving , but he keeps saying he wants me on the truck when I get all things settled and taken care of, and moved! He has a good memory. But he must have forgotten, my impulse buying! I won't remind him!!

Thanks for sharing. I used to love the $2.00 dollar fabric store. Still have stash from there.
