    Was your lucky day. I'm sure they appreciated your call. Happy Quilting and Happy Easter. :-D

    That is astounding - great for your good fortune!

    I was in one of the Joann's stores today that will close and combine with another in a new, bigger location - that doesn't happen until June 24th - - in the meantime, there was nothing left - - it actually seemed eery like I was picking through bones at what was left. Can't wait for the new store!

    That's my problem with them too! I have observed the manager watching the girls at the cutting table like a hawk, and one time she didn't like what she saw and took the bolt from the girl and starting cutting herself. :thumbdown:
