I would take it back and ask for 3 yards in a continuous piece. They must have rolled the last yard from one bolt onto the new bolt instead of making it a remnant. What I don't undersatand is why the clerk said nothing! Especially since most people want it in one length. We have great JoAnn clerks, I can't imagine that happening. But, if nothing else, take it back so they can use the situation as a training tool.

I would take it back and talk to a manager!

I would at least give the store a call and speak to a manager. You might be pleasantly surprised at their willingness to make this right. If there is enough of the fabric left on the bolt, I'm almost positive they will give you a 3 yd cut in exchange for what you have now. At least give them a chance!! Good luck !

This Joann's is going out of business and they are giving 25% off all fabric. Said they lost their lease. This was quilting 100% cotton and absolutely gorgeous. I spent about $200 on fabric when I bought this. There was 2 clerks in the store. One was just cutting fabric and the other was manning the cash register and cutting. I had let 4 people go ahead of me as I had a basket FULL of bolts and fat quarters and they only had one or two bolts. I wasn't paying attention.
I thought about tea dying but am afraid that it would darken or muddy the flowers too. Don't want to take that chance. I will go back to the store and see if they will exchange that piece. The idea for two quilts as was suggested is possible. I have some red material that will be beautiful with it and some yellows that will be awesome with it too. |

If it is a store closing clearance, they typically have signs up saying All Sales Final. But I would still check to see if you can get more of the one on the bolt.

If you can't use or don'treally like it. Take it back!!

I would go back to the store and buy another yard of the bolt. I would see if they would exchange or refund on the first piece. If not I would stick it in the stash.
And yes, I have done this but did not realize till I had it in the quilt. Mine was supposed to be a white aon white and one was more creamy. Just recently I bought some and the print was the same but the fabric on the main part was much heavier and thicker something I did not desire. I have learned to not buy the loose piece and buy it all off the long piece. |
I will have to remember to not take the small piece in case i should need more. Good Tip!!

Return the fabric. I used to work there and would see this all the time. It is two fabrics from two different bolts either has a different sku number or same fab, just different run. They will take it back and cut a new pc for you.
