I am so excited that Hobby Lobby is coming to my town in florida. A new craft and fabric store. I don't know when it opens,I hope it's worth the wait.

I hope so too, although not in the USA, I too find it exciting when a new LQS opens, tho the two here have closed :-(

I think you will enjoy shopping there. They have some decent fabric, and some great fabric. They also have yummy yarns and all kinds of beads. I think the prices on the home decor stuff is really high, but I don't shop for that anyway. I really like the fact that they are closed on Sunday so the employees can go to church, or spend time with their families.

Lucky you!! I wish they would come to the west coast :D:D:D

Hobby Lobby is way more of a craft and home decor store than a fabric store. They don't have just cotton fabrics either, they also have some clothing fabrics.

mmmmmmm I miss hobby lobby :cry:

The Hobby Lobby closest to me,(Quincy,Il about 60 mi.), has a pretty good selection of quilting fabrics. And boy when they have a sale, THEY HAVE A SALE. Things are at least 50% off. Otherwise they are kinda pricey to me estimation.

Sign up for their email specials. On Sun morning I get an email with the weekly sales. Almost every other week they have a 40% off any one item at reg price. Close to Christmas I was getting a 40% coupon every week.

I went to Hobby Lobby last night in Paducah and they were having a 30% off sale on most of their fabrics. Most I paid per yard was $4.19 after the discount.

I have a Hobby Lobby in town, and haven't really taken advantage of it. I read all the reviews here and think--guess I had better get uptown!

Most weeks you can print off the coupon online.. and they do have a great selection of Yarn...

I'm green with envy :hunf: I wished one was coming to my area

Our Hobby Lobby fabric stay on sale for 30% off. I was told that it stays that way. So you can not use the 40% off cupons. But they have some nice fabrics. :thumbup:

Several months ago I started buying fabric at Hobby Lobby for the aprons that I have been making. They do have some really good stuff. I like the fact also that they usually have it on sale.

Glad you're getting a new shop.

I LOVE Hobby Lobby!! I drive 2 hrs. to get to the closest one...u will love it!!

I love Hobby Lobby!

I love Hobby Lobby. Just went there this afternoon, picked up some fabric and some metal containers for flower arrangements.
I can spend hours in that place.

Sorry yours doesn't have cotton. I have 3 close to my house and all of them have quite a lot of 100% cotton and always 30% off. I have purchased some very good fabric from them.

Ours use to have a larger fabric department, but it has downsized a little They still offer a variety of cottons, fleece, flannels and all the likes for quilting.

I said they don't have just cotton. You have to pay attention to fabric content at HL.

Sorry, Need to pay attention huh??
:oops: :oops:

I am jealous too, wish one were coming to my area. The nearest one to me is about 45 minutes south where I live. They do have tons of home decor items but they have a decent fabric selection too. About the size of a Walmart fabric section or maybe a little bigger, but the prices and quality range are more like Jo Ann Fabrics. ;)

You should come out to southwest Kansas and southeast Colorado, 45 minutes IS in your area!

I love Hobby Lobby and we're getting one soon in my town too!

I am in Westminster, Where are you located?

Right now I'm in Greeley but I grew up in Lamar and lived in southwest Kansas for over 25 years and I'm headed back there in a few months. For years the nearest HL was about 4 hours away depending on if you went to Wichita or Pueblo. Now there's one in Dodge City. From where I'm moving to that's only an hour and a half. By southwest Kansas standards, that's close.

i love our hobby lobby. i love there fabric section here. i also do beaded earrings and necklaces and they have alot in both.

I still have relatives in Sharon Springs, Tribune and I think there is some in Goodland.. Oh and Wallace.

Hobby Lobby also has a great charity program where they buy buildings for charities. Our church applied for a building but because we were already approved to but it we didn't make the rules and couldn't be blessed by hobby lobby. I like supporting companies that do good for others and are not consumed by the almighty dollar. Now that I read they are closed on Sundays so employees can attend church/ have family time?? Hobby lobby please come to my island!!!!!

I love HOBBY LOBBY..its 45 minutes away...two of them in Louisville...and I love the 40% off coupons that I can use on anything...even if fabric is already on sale I use the 40% off on sewing supplies..templates mats etc...I just spent all my gift cards and more there last weekend..got my OBW fabric..pics to follow...when I get my 60º template

Depending on how "western" you are in Massachusetts, there is a Hobby Lobby coming to Albany NY area sometime this spring. :-D :-D :-D

Enjoy Hobby Lobby. It is easy to get lost in the store. I tend to stay near the fabric and yarn.

The fabrics at my HL tend to be on the traditional side---the small calico prints mostly, with some blended prints and some bits of other kinds. Their (old fashioned white with color) checks are a 50/50 blend but they have a good many different colors and sizes.

What is your town? I'm in Bradenton, and am hoping that it is near there!!

Where at in Fl. I want a Hobby Lobby too.

Hobby Lobby is the only fabric store we have here.I Like their fabric.

Read somewhere that Hobby Lobby has started selling fabric on-line now...maybe to give Joann's competition?

I didn't know hobby lobby carried fabric,I pass it all the time and I thought it was only a craft store like Michaels craft store (no fabric here). Last night we got a foot of snow and our road is not plowed yet or I would be at Hobby Lobby right now! Woo Hoo! a new place for fabrics. I can't wait marie

what town?????
