I was in LA last year, and went to Levines. They had a tons of quilting fabric in their main store. Prices were about the same as LQS. I went to their loft, and didn't have the patience to go through all their boxes. I found loads of cones of embroidery thread for almost nothing. They have a parking lot next to their store, but the parking was VERY expensive, and you paid by the 15 minutes unless you bought over $50. I am sure it wasn't worth it.. I would go to M&L instead.
