    Jacigltznok said it best, WM is after $$$. I`m going to give them a chance. They brought it back after many complaints, but only for about 2 weeks, now it`s gone again. They put their customers out a lot when they remodeled this store to make it a Super WM. and now tell us we have to put up with out any straight aisles, looking for ever for every thing, and now tell us it`s just a small super WM with no consideration for quilters. I won`t go back now, I have lots of time to wait it out, as when I did go there, there were very few customers in the store.

    The one I usually go to have a limited amount of fabric, not much of anything that I would buy. A real shame, because they used to have a nice fabric dept. I was in a different one Monday, because I had to go get car tags, and they had more material, but it took forever for someone to come over and help the person who was waiting for service. I looked over the material, but didn't see anything I wanted to buy. I bought bobbins, lol. Too bad all those bobbins I got with my estate sale purchase don't work for my machine.

    Checked out our Walmarts today. One has lots of fabric and nice quality stuff reasonably priced, the other has none.........yet. The fabric cutter at the one where the fabric was says they were told all Walmarts will have fabric back eventually. I was really surprised at the nice quality and prices from $2.97 to $5.99 per yd. Had some really beautiful fall bolts!
