I grabbed a bunch of stuff at ours, including a big box of poly fill for a great price. I guess I need to go back to what is even cheaper. Is it all the Hancock stores? The ladies in our said it was just some.

That is sad. When I was young, in my thirties, (probaboy not young to some of you, LOL) I bought all my fabric at Hancocks. I made all my maternity clothes and lots of things for my babies. I have fond memories of the excitement of pouring over pattern books there and the subsequent hours of frustration as I ripped out more seams than I put in! I was a less than talented, but very determined seamstress! I even made mens shirts and on one occasion a swimsuit. All the material came from Hancocks. They will be missed.

I guess I’ll be taking a few trips.
Ours in Montgomery is also closing. No good deals. I went and checked them out and it wasn’t much to get excited about. We will still have our JoAnns, Hobby Lobby and some other privately owned sewing/fabric shops.

Ours is closing in Sioux Falls SD also, I was told that they filed bankruptcy, don’t know if that is correct or not, ours was kind of off the beaten trail but they did seem to get business. We still have Joanne’s ,and Heirloom creations and a few other quilting specialty shops.
