out the competition and then switched overnight into a store that sold only the worst stuff in the world. stuff I would never sew on. Sewing is a big part of my life but haven't bought anything at Joann's in years. I get my fabric from Goodwill or another thrift store. Sheets can be turned into curtains and play clothes. (flannel sheets make pajamas.) Better stuff than Joann's sells.
