Our WM still has fabric and is ordering more in better fabric a little higher in price but is worth it nice fabric. So far we still have ours here.

Our local Walmart (SC) has phased out all sewing supplies. They have turned the whole department into electronics.

After talking to the manager of the fabric dept in one of our local WMs, my understanding is that all of the fabric departments will be deleted. They are removing them as they remodel each store. I talked to her when they were getting rid of theirs a couple of years ago. Since then a new WM was built closer to where I am in Florida and they didn't put one in at all. Just a few threads, notions and yarns not even the precuts.

Good for you. An opportunity taken and succeeding. I hope your business continues to grow. :)
