It is in Lawton, on Quanha Parker Trailways.The walmart on Sheridan road doesn't have it.
you can't beat those fat quarters for $1.00. I wish I could remember more prices. I know the jelly rolls were $10.00 and I think the bundle of coordinated fabric was $12.00

That is fantastic news. I wonder if any WM's in the Tulsa area will do this.

Melinda, this Supercenter was build only 5 years ago.They remodeled our other Walmart last year and did not include this fabric. I talked to a clerk and she said that they remodel every 5 years and this was their newest remodel. So hopefully as your Walmarts get remodeled it will include the fabric.
I think it will all depend what the response from the shoppers will be.

Sharon ,do you have the fabric in your store? I know they used to have jellyrolls for 19.97 and marked those really down when they did away with the fabric dept. I think the new jellyrolls they have are not as big as the last ones.
I need to go back and make some notes :-D

How far are you from other fabric stores. That is fantastic for you. Our super WM did away with all fabric, but kept a few crafting supplies. But office supplies is sorely lacking as other areas. I guess they had to cut some areas to add the grocery section, but I've not heard one person here say they like the super WM. I used to go to our old WM at least several times a week and knew where everything was. Now I do my best to avoid that area. :-(
