Flo Woolsey, Your question is answered as I'm in Central Jersey, along coast near Red Bank. These shops are south of me.
Quilting Possiblity in Forked River is the largest one. It has a great selection, sewing machines, classes. I'll be there on Saturday as they are hosting a 1,000,000 Pillowcase Sew In.
Mouse Creek on Rt. 9 in Howell is fairly new and has expanded, fabrics, classes and does long arm quilting.
Fabric Inspriations in Edison is new, owned by my Guild's President. Limited fabrics right now as she is hoping to move to a larger shop, although she has a good group of classes. All the shops have knowledgable, helpful staffs. We do have a Joann's in Shrewsbury, not the best one I've been in but always good to use coupons for supplies.
My favorite quilt shop is Zooks in the Lancaster area in PA. It will be my friend's and my first stop when we're there for the Quilt Show end of March. May in Jersey

To May in NJ. Along with Zooks, there is Weavers, located in Lititz--not too far out of the way and a very nice place in the country. They are not huge but have very good fabric selections. I understand that they have a barn in the back that is also open on some weekends and they have great sale prices. Sauders is a much larger place, great prices, and good selection; however, it is a little out-of-the-way. Zooks has a great location, in walking distance of Kitchen Kettle.

Unfortunately, the closest quilt shop to me is not a nice place to shop. My favorite shop is Common Threads in Waxahachie, Texas. They specialize in 1800's reproductions, 1930 repros, and a wonderful staff to help you with all your quilting needs.
Just love them.
Just love them.

Here in Oregon City, I have 3 under 2 miles from my house. Let's Quilt, Heart to Hand, and JoAnn's. Another 7-10 Miles I have 3 more! Canby Quilts, Hollyhill, in West Linn and Pioneer Quilts in Clackamas, Oops - 2 in Milwaukie. Too many to visit. I have been good. Have not spent any $$$ in January so far. Good thing it is close to the end of the month. My favorite - All of them! :-o
