So, what is a ‘Shop Hop’?

Shop Hops are collaborations between quilt shops within a drive-able region. The main goal is to encourage local customers to visit every shop. There are always incentives.😁 The second goal is to create a fun and memorable experience for all.

Each store was assigned an era in America's 250 year history, from which they designed their own block.
Patterns for each block are free at each store, as well as a limited number of fabric kits. Kits include sashing in addition to the fabrics needed for the block. Finishing kits or border fabrics are unique to each store, pick your favorite and be sure to get one when you visit.
