There are 54 shops and some nice prizes available if you make it to 16 of them. I'll probably get to three as I'm a bus rider, but my local shop does have the fabrics available for preorder, Here is the info..it does look like fun WW quilt Shop Hop -- Edited on 5/1/12 6:51 AM -- -- Edited on 5/1/12 6:55 AM -- ------ 2009-113.25 yds 2010-115.5 2011-80.25+30+donated 2012 86.3 yds.. 2013 21.0 Everyone who sews seriously has a stockpile of fabrics, because it is natural to purchase more than can be sewn in any one season" Singer, Timesaving Sewing, 1987

Date: 6/25/12 12:04 PM I made it to 42 shops this year and plan to go to Island Quilter on Vashon in the next 2 days just to get the block. We missed its ferry by just a few minutes to get there by 8 pm. My 11 year old daughter loves the shop hop and this was her first year to get the adult blocks for which she got 20 of them, the funner ones only. I just love going through the little kits and making them up one by one. It's sort of addictive. This year I also worked in the local shop, Front Porch Quilts, where the poster quilt is hanging on the wall. ------ They're not mistakes, they're creative opportunities

My daughter-in-law and I visited 22 shops in 3 days, which was more than I ever expected to accomplish, especially since we had a 1 year-old in tow. It was a wonderful experience and I enjoyed every minute of it. The 50 degree weather in Seattle was definitely a change from our 90+ degree heat here in MS! ------ Patricia Bernina 830LE ~ Bernina 630E ~ Bernina B350SE Vintage Postcard Dragonfly ~ Juki TL2010Q ~ Babylock Enlighten ~ Babylock BLCS "One thing life has taught me: if you are interested, you never have to look for new interests.
