Hello Shiny Crafty People and welcome back to the channel!
After Joann Fabrics and Crafts closed, I wanted to find out where I could get fabric to fuel my crafting. I've already checked out 6 Michaels stores in 2 states (check out that video here: ), and now it's time for Walmart.
I went to three different types of Walmart stores. I chose a more upscale Walmart Supercenter in Summerfield, Florida. That one's on the edge of The Villages, a wealthy retirement community. I also went to a more everyday Supercenter in Leesburg, Florida in a working class community. And finally I chose the smallest Walmart store (not a supercenter) in Altamonte Springs, Florida in the Forest City area. This one is tucked between two Supercenters and is probably only still around because there is a dedicated local customer base.
The Summerfield location had, as expected, the most extensive collection. It's the newer store and it still had a cutting counter and fabric on the bolt to purchase by the yard. I did not buy any that way, but there was a woman who chose fabric, rang the call button, and was served during the time I was visiting. It seemed to work smoothly. They also had a very large selection of pre-cut fabrics as well as sewing machines, patterns, zippers, binding, and more.
The Leesburg location mimicked the larger Summerfield store but it made due with only one full aisle instead of almost two. It jettisoned the cutting table and by-the-yard fabric bolts, as well as the pattern selection. It retained the other items and seemed to have nearly as much selection of the pre-cuts as the larger Supercenter.
I sought out the smallest store in my area because many people across the USA will still have access to only this size store and I want to make sure that I show everyone what might be available. It was eye-opening to see how they prioritized items but I was happy to see they didn't just do away with fabric altogether.
Soon, I'll be making a special bag project with fabric I got from Walmart and which most store around the USA seem to have in stock. Until next time, Stay Crafty!
