    I found 53 bunnies before I found the first block. Now I've found 57 bunnies. One block to show for all that. A little ridiculous, IMHO. I feel like I deserve a run on the blocks now.

    I have 7 so far & will finish the rest today I hope. There is only 12 patterns that I can see & at end of month they will give out how to put it all together.

    I think something is wrong this month. It downloaded duplicates which it has never done before.

    The blocks apparently move around too. I've had varied luck in past hops - sometimes I'll find a block every fifth bunny and sometimes I'll got 20,30,40 bunnies before finding a block.

    Cheers, K

    When you download make a PDF file in your documents & title it March shopshop then it should open back up to it & if you have a duplicate it will tell you.

    They all went into the same subdir and added different numbers frior to the extension. In days past, it would have been my job to find out why. Now all I have to do it delete and life is good.

    I've found 97 bunnies so far but only 2 blocks, one yesterday & one today. If this is supposed to encourage business, it's not working:-) I think it's too time consuming for patterns that are so basic.

    Definitely time consuming and 97 seems a bit much to only have 2 blocks so far. But as for the nature of the patterns - basic is very appealing to us new quilters. I didn't bother to do a couple over the past months because I knew I'd never use the blocks. These, I might use.

    Cheers, K

    The blocks move around too so you could go to all of the shops and find all the bunnies but not all of the blocks. So you'd have to go back to some stores again. It is frustrating.

    Agree.
    There are alot of new quilters on this board. Basic is good. You have to start somewhere. I have seen some basic block quilts that I never would have thought could turn out so beautiful. :thumbup:
