Candy's Quiltworks in Northridge, Ca. Candy's has over 10,000 bolts of good quilt fabric, they have over 1600 bolts of just batiks. The people in the store are really nice.
Candy's is not really my LQS, but within 20 minute drive, if you live in So. Cal, check it out.
I try not to go in our LQS that is right in my city. They are rude and are not helpful at all. The owners are the ones that are the most rude of the group. They have one employee that is nice. I go there only if I ABSOLUTELY have to. I have probably been in there maybe 5 times in 5 years.
