JOANN Fabric and Crafts 3201 East Lincolnway, Sterling, IL 61081

"I can always find the craft item or fabric piece that i want, friendly workers, helpful with coupons, Etc. at checkout. Great prices on clearance seasonal items. Im always surprised by the selections available! We are lucky indeed to have such a great store in our town!"

"I sew my patches on by hand and needed some new needles - i really enjoyed the selection to choose from - and got a new style of thimble I'm excited to try"

"Great staff working there, they deserve a raise. Super kind and helpful. Had everything I needed to make a costume."

"It's kinda quiet and hidden away somehow right out in the open. I have seen Joanne's in passing countless times throughout my life. The place has been there for as long as I can remember. Untill recently I had never entered this remarkable place. Upon entering the first impression was subtly grand. The staff greeted me and were amongst the best to have received me. No crowds of ppl bumping into other ppl or reaching for the same item as someone else. The place is quite larger than I expected and there is much more delicately organized inside. It must have taken very dedicated hard work to keep everything appearing perfect and to be so we'll keep. Everything was where it was suppose to be and there were no wrong tags clutter or debris I could find. No mistakes at all in fact. Its very hard to believe with so many small items to misplace. Well done, to say the least. My impression going in was the place was over priced and a bit bougie', and it was, but In a good way. What I didn't know about was the complex and compounded discounts offered by the the store. U may choose to receive coupons and discounts digitally, through mail, and/or in store and many of these can be used together. Even when I thought my cart was getting quite full, I still paid significantly less than what was expected. Definitely beating out usually underpriced competitors like Walmart, hobby lobby, and harbor freight. All in all a wonderful experience. My only regret is not having more time to spend perusing and scuffling about the place, finding more hidden gems inside. Another note; I can usually keep a running tally to the dollar in my head. I was unable, without out the aid of pen+paper or a smart phone. End of purchase, cost transparency I knew it was less but not sure till the end. Considering everything, a very small flaw that may not even be noticed or considered by others. I am definitely going back."

"I love this store. But they don't carry everything the other big joanns carry or it's meant to be that way. But the employees are very nice. I only had one incident but that was moons ago."
