Our Walmart took the fabric department out totally. No news if they are going to put it back in.

Our Joanns is still closed from Irene and our Walmart does not carry Fabric yet and none of there staff I spoke to seemed to know anything about them getting it back. Thank goodness the is Ebay and quilt shops on line so I can purchase Fabric.

I like a store that has it year round.

Same here. We've had Xmas fabric for about two months. Not a big choice........about 10 to 12 selections. They weren't very inspiring. Doesn't anyone in their corporate sewing section sew?

In Ohio, our Walmart has had out the Christmas fabric since they started putting the fabric department back in the store about 2 months ago. I have been making quilted Christmas decorations for the last two weeks.

Yesterday I stopped by the Walmart in our town that still carries fabric. I don't shop there very often and was disappointed in the selection and quality. Maybe I just wasn't in the mood. No Christmas fabric and just odd bolts that didn't coordinate with anything. Won't go out of my way to stop again anytime soon.

Our WM took out all the sewing notions except just what was needed. To get any embroidery floss you have to go out of town. They keep saying the fabric department was returning and it has been out about two years. STILL WAITING.

Our WM never lost it's fabric and they put out the Christmas fabrics quite a while ago. I haven't been back in for a couple of weeks but they still had a pretty good amt when I checked last. I think it depends on who does the ordering. If the person who orders for the fabric dept doesn't sew, they may not order what people who DO sew would. Just a thought.
