I line in the UK. Some years ago Walmart bought our supermarket chain ASDA. We do have a Walmart superstore about 25 miles away, but woe is me.
They, never ever have sold quilting supplies. You are all so lucky. I guess is that quilting is not so big in the UK, although we started doing it way, way back.
The Victoria and Albert Museum in London had a major exhibition: Quilts 1700 - 2010 Hidden Histories. I was very lucky and received a copy of the hard back book that went with the exhibition for my birthday last year.

Our store is remodeling as we speak. They have taken out or fabric dept and replaced it with precuts. Of course this is probably because I got my first sewing machine for christmas and am really getting into sewing. I am really disappointed. The fabric doesn't seem to be any better and it is more expensive. Although we do have a larger precut section than other stores in our area. And I can't go to Joanns anymore cause it was leveled in a tornado last month. Very sadB
