Fabric and crafts retailer Joann Inc., which has been a destination for generations of quilters, knitters and lovers of crafts projects for more than 80 years, is going out of business and shuttering all its stores.

As Joann Fabrics closes its retail stores, many mourn the loss of easily accessible materials, an entry point for hobby newcomers and a sense of community.

Fabric and crafts retailer Joann is shutting down all of its U.S. stores, leaving cosplayers, seamstresses and small Etsy business owners in the dust.
