I just returned from my Walmart here in Napoleon, OH, and they are bringing the fabric back! They already have quite a bit of quilting cotton, all varieties of muslins, fusibles, interfacing, and flannels, with some fleeces and decor weight fabrics. I spoke with the associate setting up the area and she said she had quite a bit to do to get to the point where they are cutting fabric, but she was thrilled to be back!
I don't buy there often, but when I do it's usually because I'm desperate for something. It will be nice to have them back and I'll buy my fusibles (I make a lot of bags) and muslins there as long as they keep the quality up.
The associate did not know if they were coming back in every store, but I think it's very telling that we got ours back because they just took them out less than a year ago.

It is still DARK in Canada, at least in any of the stores around here.

Seen light, or opportunity....with cost of fabric going up and everyone looking for better deals, they are more than competition for our local quilt shops as they can buy in such huge quantities....they are a death sentence for some of the small business owners.
