    Hate to tell you this, but went to Walmart yesterday and they have added a whole bunch of new fabric. Rather than getting rid of the fabric department, our store is adding fabric. I've overhead several different ladies saying they are there from other communities since their store has closed down the fabric department. Hope the addition of fabric or bringing back fabric will happen in the stores near you.

    Local Wal-Mart has fabric, the other Wal-Marts in the area have done away with fabric.

    My Walmart is making it's fabric dept, smaller, but we get to keep it. Bonus, I've been picking up some great deals on the fabric they don't have room for.

    To me the Pellon products and Warm and Natural batting that is sold at Walmart saves me more money then buying the fabric. The fusibles, Insulbrite, batting, muslin bolts are the first items I go to when I find a Walmart that has the fabric dept. I found a wash away stabalizer for about $1 a yard it works the same as the Solvy. Also the fusible fleece and cotton canvas, ticking, and other basics that you pay double or triple the price elsewhere if you can find it.
