I live in San Jose which is about 1/2 hour away going south. There is a cute quilt shop in Alvardo-Niles district in Fremont and several Jo-Ann stores in the area. I can't remember the name right off the top of my head but if you ask anyone where that district is, they will direct you. If you come to Santa Clara County there are quite a few. Eddies Quilting Bee, Fabric's N Fun, The Granary, Natural Expressions,Quilters Nest, Prairie Queens, Quilts and Things and the Whiffle Tree and of course several Jo Ann's and Hancock Fabrics.
