    We have three Walmarts here in Virginia Beach and only one of them so far has done away with the fabric department. I have also noticed that they are starting to stock much nicer fabric for quilting lately and also the smaller walmart is sporting a quilt of the month pattern with it's coordinating fabrics available. Maybe the petitions are doing some good!

    I was just in one of our Walmrt SuperCenters last week..We have 3 in about a 15 mile radius..4 if you bounce out another 10 miles..The 3 I've been to all have a fabric department..The lady (nice woman) working there told me that they are supposed to be losing thier fabric department sometime next year..It sucks..That's really the only thing I got into Walmart for anymore..Our local grocery store has a fuel perks program where we earn money off gas when we buy groceries, so no need to grocery shop there anymore..Hopefully they will reconsider, but it sounds unlikely

    Linda,

    Thanks !

    breaks my heart to see the departments dwindle down to a small isle or a few bins in the isle !!

    Keep the pressure on ! Linda may have given us hope !
