Congratulations. have not won a large prize, but I have won something in just about every shop hop so far. I'm busy finding bunnies for this contest, as I was unable to play for 4 months while recovering from a spinal cord injury, surgery and rehab. I'm glad to report that I'm now home and I'm anxious to begin quilting again. I thank God every day that the surgery was successful, I have regained the use of my hands and legs, and have begun walking again. Even with a walker, I'm walking and I'm eternally grateful. Younever know when one split second can radically change your life.

Yes, we take so many things for granted...every day things, like walking and talking and quilting! I am so thankful for every day i can do these things. So very glad for you too! God bless!

Yes, it is the one with the bunnies, and yes it is time consuming. I have been doing it for the last four months and (being somewhat OCD) always try to find all of the bunnies, even though you are eligible for many of the prizes and drawings with a fairly low number of bunnies. I also find that I get into a rhythm with it, but it still probably takes at least 3 hours (probably longer) to find all of the bunnies. I do 5 or 10 a day, when I am in the mood. You learn pretty quickly how to quickly find the bunnies on any given website - I got a lot faster after the first 40 or so bunnies!

I was surprised that I found a bunch of stores I would never have found without the hop, and while I haven't actually ordered from any of them yet I have them bookmarked for future reference!
