New LQS in Burlington, NJ

If anyone lives near Burlington, NJ there is a new quilt shop that just opened on the main street (High Street, I believe). It's called "Olde City Quilts" and it's worth the drive! Lots of wonderful fabrics and they also give classes on using their long arm. Once qualified, they charge $15/hour to use it. I may just give that a go! They are also a Bernina dealer and can do repairs on site. They are a bit light on patterns, but the shop is charming, nicely lit, comfortable and the fabrics are nicely displayed. And it appears that their classroom already has machines to use. They now have a newsletter and will soon have their website online as well. They have been opened for 2 months. Closed Mondays. Tues 10-6, Wed-Fri 10-8, Sat

10-5, Sun 12-5. It's nice to see a shop open some late evenings for us working stiffs! NAYY

Thanks AliceW for the heads up. I will announce it at our quilt guild tomorrow (Southshore Stitchers in Tuckahoe). My quilting be is itching for a shop hop road trip. This sounds like a good excuse.

Hello Shelly,

I started calling my friends to arrange a shop hop day and told them about the store that you mentioned in Swedesboro. Is this the one that was in the basement of a church or something like that, or is there another one? She thinks if it's in the basement, it's closed and was sorry, because she thought they had some neat classes.

One of the ladies has been to Burlington and said it is a nice shop, so we have to go. We're all Bernina Babes, so it's always good to have another resource that is relatively close.

Thanks for the info!

Hi Kathy,

No,that's the one in Mullica Hill.Best Friends or something like that.Didn't know it closed.They did have very short hours.Missed the going out of business sale! The one in Swedesboro is right on 551 where it turns,next to the Comcast office.I haven't been yet,but it looks like it's a smaller storefront.If you want the name/info I'll have to find the card I got.It's buried on DH's desk! Now if we can get a Joann in Salem County I'll be very happy!
