Default Fabric Store closing

Kim,

I wouldn't wait too long as the manager also mentioned that "liquidators"
would be coming in. On a good note, Good's Dept. Store (next to Shady
Maple) has moved their fabric department into a new addition. It's larger,
brighter, and they have great prices. Also, just read in yesterday's paper
that Jo-Ann's is moving into the former Border's store in Wyomissing. But,
I'm still hoping that the Hayloft will relocate.

Also, I don't know if you ever went to the Interior Altermative (home decor
fabrics) store in the Morgantown Furniture Outlet mall, but it is moving to
the former Fashion Bug store near Wal-mart in Morgantown. All of these
moves are sort of a chain reaction to the Furniture Outlet mall being sold
to the Mannheim Auto Auction...all the tenants have to be out of there in
October.

Quilt Show going on in Oaks this weekend. Are you going? I'll be there
tomorrow!

I just found out yesterday that the Hayloft Fabric Store in Morgantown, PA
is closing. For those of you who have been there on trips to Lancaster
County, you will remember it as the store located in a loft above Martin's
grocery store. They also have an online store. It is a huge place with
thousands and thousands of bolts of great fabric. Unfortunately, the
grocery store and building have been sold to another grocery store (one of
those scratch and dent places), and they are not interested in the
fabrics.
The very sad manager told me that there is only a slight, slight chance
that
they might relocate. She just found out about this last Friday, and they
have to be out by November 7th! Monday they'll start with 25% off
everything....I don't know where the prices will go after that. I just
checked their website, and it does not mention the closing. I'm really sad
about this...it's only 5 minutes from my house and sooooo handy!

Wow! What a shocker! And very sorry to see as well. And I just
discovered a few minutes ago that I need to be out that way in the
very near future. Maybe I'll stop by and see what the sale prices
might be like then.
