Yes we got ours back also and I was thrilled. Read an article that states if your Wal-Mart did not get fabric back to go to the store manager and make a request to return it to your local store.

Yes, I heard a couple weeks back - that they were bringing it back around the country. Glad for your news.

I'm also jealous :o)
The machine-prices look really good. What a pity that it is not longer possible to click on the pic here to enlarge them (or good for my nerves ;-).
Wish you fun for your next shopping-trip *lol*
Greetings, Bettina

Not sure how they are deciding which stores first - one I shop at never lost it and another one still does not have it back. Looking forward to when all of them are back though!

Ours got it back also but ours are pre packaged kind. Not good if you only want a small amount of fabric for quilting or such. I don't like it. I will still drive the extra miles to go to the one that didn't lose it.

Yes, ours got it back, too!! And its with a cutting table - not on bolts. I visited one in Alabama that said they had fabric and it was the bolted kind - really quite useless for appliquers and quilters - and REALLY ugly stuff. I am SO excited about having the full service kind. I also saw a sign that our town was getting a Joanne's (in 2012). It kinda far away from where I live, but it will give us another choice.

Oh Wait until you get a Joannes!!! No more Walmart. I have two Walmart 's 15 minutes from me and a Joanne's store 30 min from me. I opt for Joannes. Handcocks is so long ago, don't know where they are any more. I don't care for Hobby Lobby.

Since I heard this on here, I've been keeping an eye for if and when we get it back in Canada. They do have some fat quarters and some sewing supplies - so we do have very minimal, but not if you need fabric.
Still waiting - but good to hear some have gotten theirs back!

hmmm...we never lost our fabric dept. here- I don't buy material much anymore, I hit up the notions on a regular basis though. I have such a stock pile of fabric already that I don't have time to make up-couldn't imagine buying anymore.
