    Mine finally got their's back. Like any place some good, some bad. Really like the 100pk charm pack for $9.99.

    Mine only has the pre-cuts and I just can't use them. They would be all right if you were doing a quilt from all their packages so they would co-ordinate but I usually am looking for something to go with my stash. I have bought a couple of the fat quarters for a tablerunner but I haven't used them yet. They seem like decent quality.

    Ours has theirs back..but nothing to get excited about. Lots of AE Nathan flannel, and quite a bit of fleece. I have bought some greens that they had from quite awhile back, and they are good quality. Also bought a couple of fat quarter bundles that were in rainbow colors and a nice quality. I sure wish they would stock more...people are anxious around here! At least they do have nice, wide backings. Yaayyy!

    The WM local to me only has 1yd and 2yd cuts, FQ's and rolls. I have bought a few of the yardage ones and they washed up very nice. Not thin at all. The FQ's felt thin to me and I could see the rolls were not cut very well, so not wasting my money on either of those.

    I have looked but not purchased. I purchase for the project and I have everything I need for now.

    We never lost our fabric at our small Walmart, but when they built the super Walmart, they did not add the fabric department. I haven't been there lately to see if they have begun to add fabric.

    Two store around here are enlarging the department, some really nice material. I believe it is up to the head of that department on what they get in. I know one of the stores here the department head tells us what she is getting in.

    Local stores where they have added the department back are all dismal at best. No one to help, lots of fleece and not much cotton. A big disappointment.

    My WalMart doesn't have material yet. I so wish they would get material in.

    Our Newer WalMArt now has a decent fabric section. A fair amount of cottons and fleeces. Other fabrics I don't use. They have a good selection of muslins, a couple of backings, and an assortment of webbings and interfacings. And their prices are better than anyone else!
