Since Sam Wal. died and his family took over they dont care that thier Dad wanted to focus on the rural and senior citizens. The quality is down and definetly the customer service has gone almost completely. They will slowly lose all their following. We will go else where. Jolo

Just got back from WM...BOM May fabrics (A E Nathan) were $2.47/yd. At that price I couldn't resist. They are very pretty soft pastels that I will be able to use for a baby girl quilt for my niece who is expecting in June. The clerk in the fabric department said that they will have fabric until 2011 when they remodel the store and said that she thinks they will still carry fabric in the future because they sell a lot from this particular store in Canton, GA. She also said that everyone must call or write to voice their opinions if they want to make a difference.

It did at our Walmart in Sherman, Texas, also, but when the store was remodeled the fabric went out the door. Many other things of particular interest to women also went out the door, although management will tell you the new "party " department is designed to appeal to women.
I much preferred the fabric.

Hi everyone.....I too want WM to keep their fabric department in every store.....so I too wrote a letter and tomorrow I will also call.Here is my letter:
I am writng on behalf of the hundreds of women who sew all types of items eg: quilts, clothes and or home decor items. We are all across this great country of ours.We ask that you continue to have a fabric department in all of your stores including your new ones.
We have relied on WM for all of our sewing needs for many years. Our economy has forced many fabric stores to close but we could always rely on WM to be there for us. So please reconsider your plans and keep your fabric and related items department in your stores....Thanking you in advance....Sincerely, Rona J Flaherty, Naples florida
I hope many of you will write and that this helps....hugs SG

When they remodel our Walmart in Indiana, they did away with the fabric department as they said not making $ and they made the electronic department bigger, we don't shop much now at Walmart
