Hi there,
Our large Hancocks store, Lawton, OK, closed June 17, 2007. I sure will miss it, they had everything a seamstress or quilter could want. I got in on lots of their markdowns, and bought trim at 75 to 80% off. The last day or two they sold fabric at $1.00 a yard, and people were buying it by the bolt. I was out of town then.
The store at Wichita Falls, TX is much smaller but is still open. We have two super Wal Mart stores and they are still stocking fabric.
There are not many quilting shops available, with the higher quality and very beautiful fabrics. But those specialty shops are usually very expensive.
That's my 2 cents, guess we shall see what happens next.
Blessings and happy quilting
Louise
