Not yet, probably in a couple weeks.

tlrnhi 07-01-2008 08:35 PM

I've been finding that if you follow the clues/links, there's no bunny.
Sometimes there's a YOU FOUND IT, but no link or bunny to click on.
I hope they fix it soon!

SaraSewing 07-01-2008 10:34 PM

I've done them for quite a while, except for June when I was gone on vacation for 2 weeks and just too busy. But I've never won anything, not even a spool of thread. :(

I won a $5 gift cert in one of the first shophops, but nothing since then. I found 17 bunnies yesterday! Woohoo...on the way!:wink:

tlrnhi 07-02-2008 09:12 AM

I have 78 of them little buggers.
Some of the sites I went to, would follow ALL the clues and what not and find NO bunny!
If anyone needs help, let me know, I can help ya out if need be. That is IF I have found the bunny at the site you are looking at.

Roben 07-03-2008 07:38 AM

How's everyone doing on the bunny count? My list is down to 14, but some of those I've found and the e-mail comes back without a shop name :cry: I hope its just a glitch - I haven't done this before, so I of course am clueless :-) There's a couple that I swear I've clicked on every page of the site and still am bunnyless.

Roben 07-03-2008 09:38 AM

Sorry about the weeds Loretta! The hail storm we had last Friday pretty much wiped out what I had left - demolished my pots :x I had some that were doing so well, too - my impatiens were glorious, and my pineapple sage was bushing so nicely! I'll have enough herbs left to use, but no putting them up this year. They'll limp along, but we're too far into the growing season for them to really come back fully. (Normally we hustle the pots into the garage, but this storm hit so fast there just wasn't time.)

So, I have time to hunt for bunnies :lol:

Yes, I agree with you....there ARE some that are bunnyless. I e-mailed a couple of the sites and was told to KEEP LOOKING. Well? I have clicked ALL the links on their pages and NOTHING! They were actually a little bit rude about it too. I should have kept their e-mails, so I could let you all know about their rudeness, but then again, they probably get TONS and are maybe tired of it. But, one would think that if they ARE getting lots of e-mails, then they should check themselves, right??

I know the site Guidelines4Quilitng (number 21), the clue is "square in a square". I have clicked ALL over that site. I have clicked EVERY link, to include the privacy link and there IS NOT bunny! I have e-mailed them, but have gotten nothing back. If anyone has found the bunny there, could ya let me know WHERE? Because it's NOT showing up on my screen and it's driving me crazy.

Roben 07-03-2008 07:16 PM

tlrnhi, click on the square at the bottom of the main page that says "How to make square in a square blocks any size with no math" - it pops up a new window, then go to page 2 of that new window.

I'll trade ya - I can't find one at The Hangups Company to save my behind! :lol:

DebJ 07-03-2008 07:20 PM

I finished the June fabshop hop. I won certificates in March & April's hops. I now working on the July hop. I read somewhere something about there being some benifit to finding them on Saturday. What I can't recall though. I usually start at the top and work my way through the list trying not to waste a lot of time on any one site, coming back to the hard ones later. I too would like to win either of the grand prizes. Wish I had won a Bernina while they were a sponser. Oh, well think I will go bunny hunting. Taking aim! :lol:

I can't find that one either.
The one for square in a squre, nope, still doesnt show up.
I'm going to delete cookies and all and see what happens.

tlrnhi 07-03-2008 11:54 PM

Nope, guess that bunny doesn't like me.
Deleted cookies and all and STILL no bunny :(

I tried posting a picture, but it wont' let me :(

zyxquilts 07-06-2008 07:42 PM

For The Hang Ups Company bunny....at the top left of the home page are 3 links. Click on "Quilt Shop Guides", then scroll down. The bunny is at the bottom of the North East section.
For Guidelines, under the animation on the home page is a link that says "How to Make Square-In-A-Square Blocks Any Size Without Any Math", and it has a pink (or red) & white block. Click on that, then a new window opens. Go to page 2 & the bunny is at the bottom. Honest!
The one I haven't been able to find is at MaterialPleasure.com. There's no clue & so far I've looked at 40 of the 173 pages, plus the links across the top. Ugh!

jabs317 07-06-2008 08:21 PM

To find the one for Material Pleasure, click on Theme, then Batiks and it is at the bottom of the first page. HTH

DebJ 07-06-2008 08:23 PM

:mrgreen: zyxquilts there was a clue "think about fabrics made in the tropics" or something like that. Click the theme, then batiks scroll to bottom of the page click bunny! :lol:

DebJ 07-06-2008 08:37 PM

Is anyone else having problems getting www.AnotherbyAnita.com to load. I can't even access the site in order to hunt the bunny. :(

zyxquilts 07-06-2008 08:43 PM

Thanks for the Material Pleasures bunny! The only ones left on my list still say "Not Available". :wink:
Another by Anita popped right up for me. Maybe you need to clear your cache?

Thanks!
I cannot get the bunny to show up on Guidelines. Honest, I have tried and tried and tried. NO bunny!!! I can even send a screen shot if you'd like.
Material Pleasure won't load for me, so that one is a bust too.

What might be easier with asking for help is...when you have the name, also put in what number it is on the list too.

jabs317 07-06-2008 10:00 PM

See if either of these will help to get you there.

Ok, I went to Material Pleasures. Bunny doesn't want to show his face.


Here's a list of ones that either won't show for me or there is just no bunny to be found.

21. Guidelines4Quilting--bunny won't show up for me
22. Little Quilts---I click on sorority and no bunny. I have clicked EVERYTHING and still no bunny.
45. Material Pleasure--no bunny showing
46. Windmill City Quilts--I find the page, it says BUNNY FOUND, but nothing to click on
46. Homespun Hearth--I get to QUilt & Coffee Lovers Mystery--No bunny found
49. Cedar Creek Quilt Designs--It's in QUilt Labels at bottom of page, says YOU FOUND IT, but no bunny to click
50. Quilters Roost--It's in Snow Show, but no bunny found to click
53. Global Quilt Shop--Followed bunny to cruise pg, no bunny
65. Granny Goosese Quilt Patch--site won't load for me.
66. Pieceful Gathering Quilt Shop--In Block of Month, no bunny
81. Bonnie Blue Quilts--Link up with friends? Don't understand, but haven't found bunny
84. Greenbaum's Quilted Forest I find the YOU FOUND IT, but nothing to click on
90. FabricBlowout--followed bunny to 2d click, then doesn't go any farther with bunnys
104 Paper Pieces--it's in e-specials, but no bunny found
113. The Quilting Connection- it's in patterns, but no bunny
121. Stitchin Memories--in Jelly Rolls, found YOU FOUND IT, but no bunny to click
133. Quilters Corner--just can't find the dang thing.
140. Everything Quilts--clicked EVERY STUPID link, no bunny

I don't understand WHY I cannot get what ya'll are getting. I find YOU FOUND IT, but nothing to click on, or no bunny shows up, as in the case of Guidelines4Quilting and some others.

jabs317 07-06-2008 10:08 PM

Have you tried clearing out your cookies on your computer? That is the only thing I can think of.

I will see if I can find the others for you.

jabs317 07-06-2008 10:11 PM

Thanks!
Yes, I have cleaned everything.
Temp folders, cache, cookies, history, and whatever else there is to clean. Even did a disk cleanup too and still not working.

zyxquilts 07-07-2008 07:09 AM

Terri, you aren't using aol are you? On one of the sites I read that aol users were having trouble seeing the bunnies.
I also had some 'clicking' troubles, but found that if I closed down my browser, reopened it, then cleared my cache, it started working again. Weird stuff.

Nope, I'm using IE and I even switched to Foxfire and still got the same thing.
I've cleared EVERYTHING that can be cleared, and still no bunnies.

quiltsRfun 07-07-2008 08:51 AM

Point me in the direction of an explanation of how this works. Sounds like fun.

quiltsRfun 07-07-2008 10:56 AM

Thanks. I'll check it out when I'm not at work.

zyxquilts 07-07-2008 12:03 PM

Another thought...when you see the "You Found It", have you tried rolling your cursor around to see if it changes into the pointing hand? If it does, check your status bar at the bottom of the screen - if it says something like 'fabshophop.com/prizeregistration....', go ahead & click & that should make it count for you. I've done that a few times when the page was loading toooooo slooooooowly! :wink:

jbsstrawberry 07-07-2008 12:18 PM

Terri that is the oddest thing. I'm using IE maybe the bunny doesn't like tropical weather, or its afraid of huge lizards in the woods.

bettlove 07-07-2008 01:20 PM

tlrnhi - The bunny in #21 is on page2 of the "square in a square" page. The first time I looked, it wasn't there, and then I clicked on it again and there it was.

I've tried everything. Oh well.....I do have my 130, so I'm good there. Just wished ALL the pages would show the bunny!!

Yes Lisa. I think you are right!
We have discovered a Monitor Lizard in our back yard too! He/she is about 3 1/2 - 4 feet long. Everytime I go outside, I make sure I have my camera with me so I can take pics of it, but it hasn't shown up close enough for my little camera to get a clear shot.

Bettlove....I have clicked, refreshed the page, clicked off the site, went back to the site and still NO bunny. I'm convinced the bunnys are trying to drive me insane!!!
