On a happier note, I can report that while I was on vacation in
Seattle last week I found a marvelous fabric store called Nancy's
that would've tempted me to buy all sorts of nice things if I'd had
room in my suitcase to take them home. ;-) And it was full of
people on a Saturday afternoon! 'Though I admit there weren't any
sales going on and that's what most people would be looking for these
days.... I think the people in Nancy's were looking for specialty
items like mother-of-pearl buttons and silk ribbon for special
projects. I bought a Sewing Workshop pattern -- I don't know of any
place in central Iowa that stocks them.

But at least you seem to have gotten a reasoned response. And I
will be
writing, too.
Thanks again for letting us see that at least someone is paying
attention.
I was with a group of true believers last weekend, and, while we
were all
lamenting the disappearance of fabric stores, we agreed it is
because folks
aren't sewing anymore--which is just what Walmart told you.
