Honestly, my local Joann's staff remembered me and always asked about my last project and how the recipient liked it. "Did your dad like his new tie?" "Did your uncle like the model boat?" legit some of the nicest people.

There's a legit fabric store near me, like where designers get fabric, and it's way more expensive, but the quality is better and the variety is unmatched, but I really don't need all that. There's also a sewing/quilting specialty store near me that's independently owned and operated. Far less variety of fabrics, but more variety of patterns. Depending on what you went to Joann's for, it's possible there's an alternative near you, though honestly I still preferred Joann's to the two above alternatives. Just letting you know that sometimes there are other local options where the staff is equally helpful.
