Walmart fabric, again.
#22
While my WalMart has fabric -- it doesn't have the BOM!! One of the ladies I talked to in the fabric dept. said the manager hates the fabric dept. and won't order the "good stuff"! He's trying to make sure the fabric dept. fails....isn't that silly?? :shock:

When the local Walmart here put the fabric on sale to get rid of it, it started at 50% to get it gone fast. I happened to be in the fabric dept early early that morning. The fabric employees said they weren't allowed to call anyone to tell them of the clearance (stupid Walmart rule) and they didn't know if the truck would be there that night or the next to get what wasn't sold. The clerks were blindsided with the closing of the fabric dept and were upset no one knew. I whipped out my cell phone and called my guild members and others that I knew relied on Walmart for notions and fabric. In less then an hour the dept was full of everyone I knew and many they called along the way. The store manager rudely asked one of the employees how so many knew about the sale so early. Every woman customer started telling him off about trying to keep it quiet after all the money they spent there! It didn't take him long to get back to his office out of sight.

I found this site and love it. Our wal mart has already discontinued the fabric. But maybe through this site I can
acquire the quits and fabric.http://www.aenathan.com/index.php?tmpl=quiltofthemonth

with once the fabric departments have disappeared. Looks like here in the Baltimore area that will be sooner rather than later.
Chances are if your store that is remodeling didn't have first a 25% off fabric sale; then 50% off fabric sale; and finally a 75% off sale prior to the start of the remodeling process you may be keeping the department.
Have fun while it lasts.

Here there was no dicsount on fabric at W M.
They took what they had and totted it off to the nearest, other W M.
I wanted to buy 10 yeard of something and one I picked out had about 3 different cuts of material. All the same print, but 2 were remenants from other rolls.
Only thing discounted was the stuff that nobody wanted like the lace and satan stuff.

I found a working camera. I try to buy one fabric I really don't like that much because this helps me to be more creative. The large pink floral is the one I don't really like. The top two are my favorites.
