If you grew up wearing clothes made at home, you likely have memories of spending time at Joann, flipping through pattern books and feeling fabrics between your fingers. Unfortunately, this beloved sewing and crafting store is closing all its locations by the end of spring 2025 after more than 80 years in business. While this news is disheartening, it’s also the perfect opportunity to grab fantastic deals on yarn, fabric, tools, paints, storage solutions, and decor.
Sales are expected to continue until May, but it’s best to act quickly as items will likely be picked over soon. Visit your nearest Joann store, as they are no longer accepting online orders. You’ll find numerous discounts throughout the store, with some items marked down by as much as 75%.
