I Freakin' Love Our JoAnn Fabrics

It is so freakin' awesome. The one we had in Chicago was this tiny, dark store where everything was crammed together. Half the store was fabric, the other half was other craft stuff, with the cutting table (only big enough for 2 people cutting) and the sewing machines in the middle. There was one table in the back for looking at patterns. The fabric was always a mess and you couldn't even fit a cart anywhere. It was awful but there were times I went there once a week for fabric.

The one here is a new super store. Did I mention it is freakin' awesome. It is about three times bigger then the one in Chicago. Most of it is fabric and they had about a 50' long wall with just fleece prints stacked 4 shelves high. Their quilting section set my mouth drooling. And the yarn... More then I have ever seen in one store (although the Michaels here is good, too).

I went to get a piece of fleece to make a throw blanket for me but ended up getting a few yards of fabric and some yarn to spark my imagination. They also had all the colors I wanted to make the girls' curtains in. I just need to measure their windows so I know how much to get.

I could so live in that store.
