For me, it's a 40 mile round-trip haul to a fabric store....and truly, our fabric store is a hole...in....the....wall!! I won't mention the name, but it rhymes with "Bo-anne's!" The fabric selection is lousy and expensive because they know that they hold a monopoly on the fabric market!
When I was approached to be an affiliate with Hancock Fabrics, I was thrilled! When we lived in the Bethlehem, PA area I shopped at Hancock Fabrics and just loved their selection and pricing.
Did you know that you can purchase their fabrics online!!
They are currently having a sale on glacier fleece.....original price it $8.99 and on sale for $3.99!!
One of my favorite Christmas presents ever was a knotted fleece blanket made by my niece Amanda! I sleep with it almost every night in the winter!
Speaking of Christmas, how about some holiday craft kits??
With any online fleece order, Hancock Fabric is also offering a free fleece ideas magazine while supplies last!
I love that I am shopping tonight for my basement curtain fabric while curled up on my couch in a blanket.....

Hi, Nicole
I feel the same way about Bo anns. I only sop Hancocks, better prices, great fabric and supplies.
Thanks for sharing.
You lucky dog! An affiliate for Hancocks! I've gotta start a blog..;-)
Funny, I have had the same experience with Bo Annes. I always regret going. But for me, it is either that or Walmart (which makes me break out in a cold anxiety induced sweat, I don't about where you live, but my Walmart is tad on the scary side)...and trying to hunt down someone to cut fabric is an experience in itself, not altogether a good one either. Great deal you have with Hancocks! I do love shopping for fabric online. Way easier.
Oh, good ole Bethlehem...we have discussed this! Yeah, Hancock is AWESOME. I used that fleece to make a Colorado State University blanket for my husband last Christmas and we all fight over it now. I may need to make some for each of the kids for this Christmas! Maybe then they will leave their dad alone and quit dragging my lovely living room throw blankets around like Linus! Hee Hee
Is there a way I can order it and get you the credit for sending me their way?
If you have to shop on line for fabric (I live in a town so small there is no fabric or even anything similar store, so online I know!), I can highly recommend a site to you. I've used fabric.com for several years and always been pleased with them. Their site is easy to use, you can see their swatches very clearly, the employees are always helpful and their prices are great, even with shipping!
