Yes there are BUT most of their fabric is OVER $8.00 per yard plus S & H of another $5 or more. Being on a fixed income does not allow you to make many such purchases a year. I can buy Wal-Mart fabric for $2-5.00 per yard depending on what I buy. Most of what I buy is $2-4 pe yard fabric.

If the manager of your fabric department does a good job of keeping the department well stocked and clean be sure to praise them when you call.

Yes, I've noticed where I live, all the fabric shops are gone except for one & I don't know how much longer they will be able to hold out. I guess not that many people sew anymore.

Actually, I've noticed everytime I go to Walmart (which is mostly where I shop), their selection of items is getting less and less. Now that they've put all the mom & pops out of business, they're just not giving us the selection we once had.

I have a love/hate feeling about Walmart.
