Wal-Mart -- Nicholasville, Danville, Stanford, and Somerset, Kentucky

They were planning to remove the ones in Danville and Stanford, but we called them and complained so much, they kept the sewing and yarn departments in both Wal-Marts. I also believe that sales have increased because of their decision to keep the departments. Otherwise it is about 65 miles to Lexington. They are remodeling the store in Danville and have added another rack for fabric and are getting new fabric. Hopefully, they will not do an about face.

Desoto,Mo - House Springs, Mo still have fabrics. DD and I was told at the Arnold, MO. store that they only saw the same customers buying fabrics there and with remodel they would not carry anything that had to be measured, not true, new store only has a few craft things, no batting. The new store mainly carries Great Value brands of foods and a few national brands and prices seem to go up almost every week. We mainly shop at Sav-A-Lot for food, where we use to buy foods. Wal Marts buyers are lousy at it for the most part and buy some ugly,cheap products. Very dissappointed with the new type stores. We use to spend hundreds on fabrics there.

Union City, Tn. Fulton, Ky. These two still have theirs, I think. I believe this is a bad move on Walmart part. Their service is getting enough bad reviews, without getting all the Sewers mad!!!

Charlotte NC area - Providence Rd Walmart.; Sardis Rd.and Monroe Rd Walmart; 3 Gastonia NC Walmarts, but one was closing it down a couple weeks ago and they said another would be right behind them; Concord, NC; York SC - will be remodeling in 2012. Columbia SC had fabric but haven't checked there for a couple months.

The Southside Walmart in Dothan, AL (SE Alabama)still carries fabric but it seems that the department just shrunk a bit. Most quilt shops are an hour or more away as are the JoAnn's. We have a Hancock Fabric in town and it seems more expensive with not always the best fabric.

San Antonio, TX, Farm Road 78, near Converse.

The store on Story Rd. in San Jose, Ca still has fabric. They are starting their remodel & the last couple of times I've been in there I have noticed the selection is getting pretty slim. Also the store on Ranch Dr. in Milpitas has fabric. Also very small selection. The one other store in San Jose lost their fabric over a year ago & needless to say I don't go out there.

Jacksonville, AR -- Calling 1-800-WALMART to complaint is supposed to make a difference in the corporate decisions to close fabric departments.

jigsymom 03-11-2010 11:35 AM

Wichita Falls Texas Walmart on Lawence Road has fabric . I heard they would stop carrying it after another of the stores stopped but so far this one still has fabric. I admit I don't care for the quality of much of the fabric so I really don't go there very often.

Hi Wendy, didn't know there was a WalMart in Livonia. Will have to check it out. Houghton told me last fall that they were eventually getting rid of their fabric. Also, Lansing, MI is getting rid of theirs, too. Ypsilanti, MI still has their fabric department but it isn't as big as it used to be. Saline has no fabric but they do sell fat quarters.

The WalMart in Windsor, CA downsized and has one row of fabric.

I don't know about the Rohnert Park, CA store.
