We arrived 10 minutes before closing time on our way through to elsewhere, and believe me, even with the time pressure it was worth the visit! I asked someone where the remnants were, and they had huge tables piled high with large remnants. In 5 minutes I had an armload, and then they had 3 women hastily measuring for me. I left with a smile, but lots of regrets that I couldn't stay longer. I love their catalog and their website, too, but it's always nice to see and feel the fabric before you buy.

I agree with BellaBoo that Quilt in a Day is a nice shop to visit in Paducah. Hancock's is huge and like a warehouse and no bargains in their main area. It is not decorated and that was a surprise to me. Guess they do most of their business by mail order. They do have a huge room on the far right side with sale pieces but I did not find much I wanted when I was there during the quilt show. Some of the pieces were old and a few discolored. My sister found more than I did.

Hello fellow Missourian! Yes, they have a back room - it is almost completely full of pre-cuts - layer cakes, jelly rolls, etc. I never buy them so don't know my prices - but don't think that they are on "sale".
