Hancock Fabrics Remodel
#11
My closest Hancocks closed, now I have to go about 15-20 miles to another one. In my opinion, Hancocks is a much better fabric store than Joann's is, but I love my Joanns too. Hancocks seems to have more equipment, specialized notions (special sewing machine feet), etc. than Joann's does.

Hate to be a spoiler, but when our Hancocks remodeled, the prices jumped up. They used to have a section toward the back with inexpensive cottons. Now those same fabrics have moved to the front with a much higher price tag.

Our Hancocks here is in process of that now. Their Memoriable Day sale I walked out with 2 spools of thread. Their prices were too high compared to Joanns. I seem to find more quality fabric marked way down at Joanns these days. Who knows whats going on!

Ours is in the middle of the remodel. Frustration is high! Seems like there is less room for fabric and that the cutting tables have been downsized. Aisles are more narrow in the fabric sections making it harder to see all your choices. Not a fan!... at least right now. Maybe once it is done, it will be better. Hope so.
