Default Interesting find at Joann's -

I popped into Joann's today as it is the last day of the 50% notions wall and I need some more needles. Quilting stuff was not on sale but I looked there anyway. I saw a small section of Dritz Longarm supplies. They had long arm needles, long rolls of paper (would this be for pantographs?) for marking the quilt designs on, another long roll of clear plastic for drawing and then auditioning the quilt designs. They had a reducing glass, and a roll of screen material for drawing the quilting design. There were a few other things as well. Interesting

Has anyone else seen these items at their Joann's? I'm very curious about it because I can't imagine that there is a large call for these types of items at my local store. I might be wrong, though.

I saw these at the JoAnn's in Lewisville, TX a couple of weeks ago.

Good to know... Even though my quilting table is made for my regular machine, a couple of those things would come in handy for me too.

Saw a few items at Hancock's in SC...haven't been to JoAnn's yet. They're not stocking the stuff I'd be interested in though...like the fancy rulers, etc.....

Just went to a brand new JoAnn's today - it has only been open a week and boy was I impressed with this fabulous store. It is about 40 miles from here - much nicer than the one 50 miles from here. But, I did not see, but wouldn't probably have noticed anything to do with a longarm machine in the notions section. But, there were some longarm stuff (rulers maybe) in the quilting section. Almost everything was on sale so did not even use my 50% coupons.
