This would be great. I have to travel for an hour to find fabric of any kind. Wal-Mart is 10 min. away.

I send WalMart emails about once a week asking why isn't Walmart getting in on the billion dollar quilting industry by selling quality quilting fabric. Keep the project fabric to a min. and hire someone that knows the difference when buying for the stores.

Same here. Ours remodeled last year and has only the precuts.
I HOPE they bring the bolts back.

Oh, well, DUH!

I stopped shopping at Wal-Mart when they closed the fabric department. 'Cause IMHO everything else there is just BORING!

(Now you'd think I'd have my fill of gawking at fabric, wouldn't you? But NO! I always want to see more!)
