#JoAnns #RIP #Quilting #Sewing

Without #JoAnns I’m going to have to cobble together what I need from more mid-tier and local shops - WAWAK has been going around as an option, too - so I really appreciate tips like this

I’d especially love to know favorite outdoor fabric and Pellon interfacing sources

I recently discovered Marshall Dry Goods Company. I found yardage of a fabric I ran out of more than a decade ago, and ordered 10 yards. Also, they have 100% cotton batting at about half the price I've paid for it elsewhere (I'll report back on the quality when I get around to using it). They have a wide variety of fabrics at very good prices. Feel free to check them out at https://marshalldrygoods.com/

For those who wondered where to get Warm and White or Warm and Natural batting now that JoAnns has closed, Linda’s just announced they are carrying all Warm Company products

I’ve only recently started shopping at Linda’s, but they seem to have been around a while

Not a paid promotion, just really relieved to see my favorite batting won’t entirely disappear!

Trump Vows To Reopen Joann Fabrics As Prison

WASHINGTON—Vowing to restore and revitalize the facilities as a symbol of law, order, and justice, President Donald Trump ordered the U.S. government Monday to reopen Joann Fabrics and Crafts stores as federal prisons. “I am directing the Bureau of Prisons to use all 850 Joann locations to house America’s most ruthless and violent Offenders,” Trump wrote […]

This meme lives rent-free in my head. I'm seriously bummed about Joann's. And we all know about Hobby Lobby...

The demise of Jo-Ann's Fabric stores...really got me thinking I'm probably on that fiber arts to sheep/alpaca rancher pipeline huh. Or maybe hemp or bamboo farming. I need a good source of material for my fiber arts... #FiberArts #JoAnns #WorstTimeline

Witch, please!

If the #knitters here have a spare ~80$, #Joanns has a 60% off coupon which can be used on a single item, and the item could be a ~180$ #circular #exchangable #needle kit which drops the price to around 70-80$. A bit too steep for me and I'm a #beginner at #knit so no need to jump fully in... Also, I see now there's cheaper kits on Amazon, if you can stomach it.
Do you want to have another variant? Because that’s how you get another variant. #fabricstash #joanns
