Yes, I have been to the store - my DD lives really close to it and we go to Hancocks of Paducah (not to be confused with Hancock Fabric). They have 10 ROWS OF BATIKS - plus blenders, wide backing batiks, etc. etc. - I have been told that "some" women actually cry when they first walk in the door!

Raggiemom I am in the bustling metropolis of Champlain pop. 1,100-If you lived in Altona, I know you know where I am..leaning on my snow shovel. 90 seconds to Canada, 4 minutes to Vermont.

I have not bought anything yet for these simple yet somewhat complicated reasons.
1. I can't narrow it down. I am like a little kid with the toy catalog-I point and say 'I want that' turn the page and point and say 'I want that'.
2. Batiks-my Kryptonite.
3. When I get on the website to order I look at the hundreds and hundreds of clearance fabrics and want all them too.
4. I often get overwhelmed trying to priortize with supplies I 'need' things I need to finish and keeping in line with my budget which is not strict, but I still have to watch.
Simple-right?

Here is a link to a picture of the inside of Hancocks of Paducah that I took the last time that I was there - visiting my DD. She gave me a gift card to Hancocks of Paducah for Christmas - so can hardly wait until this weather warms up so that we can go - 5 hours away from here. Oh, and to see DD and her DH too.

I've stopped ordering from them because I had so many problems. Three different orders, NO email confirmations, two of the orders were backordered or cancelled and no notification. So three strikes, I'm done. But I will use the catalog and order from other sellers.

I see there are two different websites, too. Off to browse...
