Hon, the bunny that says November Hop Shop, is on the front page of almost every shop... that is not the one you want to click on, it is the advertisement icon.

If you go and look throughout the shop, there will be another little red/green bunny and it will say "You Found It"

Here are some hints :wink:
Read each stores front/home page for hints
If no hints are given, I check their:
Kits
Newsletter page
New Arrivals
BOM's
Patterns
and maybe poke around a little more in Fabrics

You don't need every bunny to win... if you spend 10-15 minutes hunting and don't find it? move on to the next shop. If you go through the list, and are still short a few bunnies? this can be your next step :wink:

In the Members area of the shop hops Home page, you can find a list of the shops you still need, go there to finish up your hop. Sometimes going back a second time? I will find that rascally rabbit right away LOL

I never go to the list of shops when I hop. I go to the member's area and then to the 'view shops not visited' link and hop from there. That way if I skip a shop I can easily go back to it later (because it'll still be in my list of shops not visited).

This one was relatively easy to get the blocks. I found all 5 within a short amount of time. You get the 6th block at the end of the hop. The only trouble I had was a couple of shops and they didn't give a clue and I wasn't about to spend all day long looking at every single page!!!! Most of the clues are super easy! Anyone needs the patterns, pm and I will send them over.

If there's no clue, and it's a shop who doesn't usually put their bunny in the same area every time, I don't even bother. I'll click on the online shop and might click on one link after that but that's it. If a shop gives a good helpful clue, I add it to my favorites list and shop there when I need something.

I am total agreement with what you said, if I spend too much time looking I just go to another shop and that is it.

That should read...I am in total agreement...

Aren't computers wonderful? I have mastered the shop hop but at times, get very frustrated clicking away and getting no where. You'll catch on. Shop hop is fun and I've found some wonderful shops looking for the bunny.

I do the Shop Hop each time. If you are having trouble finding the bunny then email the shop. If enough emails are sent then they generally will post a hint for all to see. I being a little OCD actually called the shop hop people and was told that the stores are supposed to have a hint and the bunny is not supposed to me more that two clicks away. Sometimes I am asked to be one of the trouble shooters and I get to hop a day early to see how smooth it will go before it goes live.

Good to know Sandra-P!

Well, I'm a brunette and you're WAY ahead of me!! I don't know about this shop hop... but it sure sounds like fun? How do I play? Btw... one of my DH's nicknames for me is "toron"... sigh... I'm afraid there's some truth to it, too.... Don't worry, he's sweet, not mean... He loves that I love quilting...
thanks for helping we "torons"...

What am I doing wrong? I'm beginning to think I have fallen for someone's ugly joke! Can anyone explain this, so a moron like me, 'gets' it? :oops:

I gave up... decided I was too blonde to figure out how toplay... thanks for having the guts to inquire..... I certainly didnt..
