OK, so maybe not lots but there are four.

This one is a small to medium sized store in an iffy part of town. The have a wonderful staff and great clearance. Located just inside the 410 loop at Marbach Rd.
Jo-Ann Store
(210) 673-7161
Meadow Village
8125 Meadow Leaf Drive
San Antonio, TX 78227-1619

This one is a large store where it can be almost impossible to find a person to help you (once you do they are helpful). Selection is great and varied. Located inside Crossroads Mall inside the 410 loop at Fredericksburg Rd.
Jo-Ann Store
(210) 732-7720
Crossroads of San Antonio
4522 Fredericksburg Road
San Antonio, TX 78201-6530

This one is small to medium sized but crammed full of great stuff and great employees. Located just off 281 at Bitters Rd.
Jo-Ann Store
(210) 496-3068
Countryside Plaza
13402 San Pedro Avenue
San Antonio, TX 78216-2057

I have never been to this store as I can almost always find what I need at one of the other three. So I have no help for you here.
Jo-Ann Store
(210) 653-9292
Perrin Plaza
11425 Perrin Beitel Rd
San Antonio, TX 78217-2537

As for which one is best, it really depends on what you need. If you need help then I would go to Meadow Village or Countryside Plaza. If you want to browse and just enjoy looking a fabric or know exactly what you want and where it is I'd go to Crossroads Mall. You should try to hit them all :bg: .

This is the one for you! It is about 5 miles from the church.

Countryside Plaza
13402 San Pedro Avenue
San Antonio, TX 78216-2057

From 1604 you go towards San Antonio on 281 (I believe this is south). Take the Bitters Rd exit and turn under the highway on Bitters Rd. The shopping center is on your right. Jo-Ann is at the far end.
This can be a crazy intersection at certain times of the day so be careful.

Don't forget to hit the Krispy Kreme on 1604 while you are here! I think it is right near the Cornerstone Church.

The next closest Jo-Ann to you is about 10 miles away. That is the one on Perrin Beitel that I have never been to 'cause it is about 35 miles from my house.
