I don't know if Marshall Dry Goods Co in Batesville, AR is considered a quilt store but they have a huge warehouse full of quilt fabric.

I really like this question but just wish we had something other than Joann's in my area. I think I know every bolt in the quilting dept. at Joann's. That's alright though as I've learned the trick of how to use their 50% off coupons when the quilting fabric in on sale. Look for the higher end fabric and get a great bargin, smile.

The Painted Pony in La Porte has 10,000 bolts. Quilters Cottage in Richmond (where I live) has 6,000.

Keepsake claims over 10,000 bolts, but Rosie's Calico Cupboard in San Diego, CA claims over 18,000.

I love this question. I now have a number of other locations to check out when DH and I are traveling around the United States. I'd like to add in Rosie's Calico Cupboard in San Diego, CA - 20,000 bolts of cotton and a huge room of tools along with a sea trunk full of buttons. Fun stop and no too overwhelming. But now I have my eiye out on visiting M and L in Anaheim. Thanks everyone, keep them coming.
