Sadie and I went to the Kennesaw store to walk around and see if prices of fabric had dropped. My plan is to buy several yards of white on white quilting cotton in different designs when it hits 50% off again. As of April 19th, quilting fabric is 30% off with a 2 yard minimum. Lots of quilting cottons remain on the shelves. They still aren’t serious about liquidating quilting fabric just yet. Same goes for some of the designer denim and nicer apparel fabric still in stock.
Find something you like that’s got less than 2 yards on the bolt? My 1.25 yards of a cute 30’s style white on white background print I needed for an upcoming BOM was $2.17 total. Finishing off the bolt with less than the minimum cutting requirements (2 yards) qualified for a remnant discount (75%) on top of the 30% off. Score!
The store is noticeably emptier than the last time I was in. The perimeter aisles (except fabric and floral) were empty, with all items relocated in to fill in the interior shelves. Some oddball items were also on the shelves – air fryers, waffle makers and other home goods. A handful of sewing machines were still available for sale. If you’re looking for a Grace frame and the Q’Nique 15″ quilting machine, they had several in boxes with a decent discount on them.
Sadie was able to get lots of petting from customers and staff while we were in the store. This is one thing we’ll truly miss when Joann closes for good.
