WM in Leesburg, FL has a small selection of fabric - you really have to be careful there, not good quality. We're headed to NJ next week to visit family and the WM in Howell, NJ has a full wall of fabric - much nicer than the WM here at home. I'm not usually a WM shopper, but they've got some really nice princess fabric and cars fabric in the NJ store. Makes up some great pillowcases for the grandkids.

I live in New Bethlehem, PA. That would be considered northwestern PA.
Clarion-17 miles away, yes for fabric
Kittanning-18 miles away, yes for fabric by the yard AND jelly rolls and fat quarters :-)
Punsxutawney- 25 miles away, yes for fabric, at least they had it 6 months ago

I was recently in Martinsburg, WV - store was remodeled a few months back. Fabric Dept is gone but there is a rack of "pre-cut fabrics" which will be Jelly rolls and the like.
I am in Cincinnati, OH and so far we still have Fabric Depts in the 2 stores where I shop. Don't know for how long. One store has fairly nice fabrics and the other has stuff that appears to have been stored in a warehouse for about 20 years. Really old styles of fabric, double knits, stiff fabrics that I would not know what to do with. After sewing for more than 60 years, I have sewn on most everything, but this is really questionable. That is why I think they are cleaning out the warehouse.

One of the 3 Walmart stores near me still have fabric. They have some that is good & some that is not so good, but I find that all regular type fabric stores. They do have some good prices that you can't find at other stores even using Joann's coupons.

The Walmart in Vestal NY, near Binghamton, has a nice supply of crafting supplies and fabric. Nothing appears to be changing =) While I choose carefully, sometimes the price is hard to beat when I know it does not need to last a long time (kid's clothes/projects).
