    I doubt it. Santee still prints in the US (they do the basic calicos for JoAnn Fabrics): http://santeeprint.com

    There also is a company that actually makes solid-color poly/cotton blends: http://www.nationaltextile.net/index.html

    But as to quilting cottons... sadly, the prettiest ones are printed overseas, in Japan, Korea, or China. The ones printed here typically have fewer screens, fewer colors.

    Maybe when they "grow-up" , but for now I did not see much that would make me a buyer!
