YEAH I found all the squares for the spring flowers quilt in the shop hop!!! COOL

SuzyM 04-02-2010 07:33 AM

Ok really dumb question, but what is a "shop hop?"

amma 04-02-2010 07:37 AM

It is a online shop hop, you sign up and then you go through the list of shops looking for the bunny logo. There is a drawing for all kinds of prizes at the end of the hop. :D:D:D google April shop hop to register :D:D:D

It is an online fabric store shophop
you search through the online shops on the list for the bunny. click on it and you get registered for prizes.
I won a $10 gift certificate from February's shophop.
It is fun and you get to scope out a bunch of online fabric stores.
This month they have a free quilt pattern that you find the block patterns to in addition to the bunnies.
Clear as mud? :-)
It's easy and fun and rather addicting :oops:

How did you find all of them? From what I can tell, some only have the March bunny up. I have all but six (I think), and those I simply cannot find.

QuiltingGrannie 04-02-2010 05:51 PM

Ya all are WAY ahead of me. It's only the 2nd! I have time...

there is there that are not available...

LucyInTheSky 04-12-2010 03:18 PM

Questions: For the blocks, are they something separate you find? Or when you submit your prize registration, it says "and you found a block"?

And how many blocks am I looking for?

bstanbro 04-12-2010 03:41 PM

When you click on the bunnie, it takes you to a page where you enter your email address to register for prizes. When you click there, it takes you to another page with one block to download. There are twelve in all. The thirteenth will be given to everyone who finds at least one by the end of the month. Not every registration will result in a block. You just have to keep looking. Many have had trouble with the site, however, including me when it said I had found all twelve blocks and I had only found eleven. If you come up short, post again, and someone will give you the ones you're missing. Good luck!

Cool, thank you for letting me know. I'm glad it's not a SEPARATE trail of crumbs to find block patterns too :D I'm through E, no blocks yet, so I was starting to wonder

bstanbro 04-12-2010 03:45 PM

I found them in clumps. I'd find several, then none for a long time. It's addictive and frustrating at the same time.

fun2quilt 04-12-2010 03:51 PM

Has anyone started piecing the blocks yet?

I'm through K, found all but 3. Still NONE. Do you have none through K? I couldn't find Bear Paw, Charlotte, and Fabric Attic. EVERY other one...

fun2quilt 04-12-2010 04:09 PM

They rotate around, took me going through almost the entire list before I found them all.

LucyInTheSky 04-12-2010 04:14 PM

Now I'm through O, not a one! Grrr, these bunnies are getting on my nerves. They're going to be dinner!

Okay, I've found every bunny but 8 and NO blocks. Zero. And if there's 12 blocks, then I highly doubt those last 8 websites have all 12. And I've done this over the last hour and a half, so I don't think the bunnies would be moving this quickly (vs doing a few a day). I'm annoyed!

oldswimmer 04-12-2010 05:07 PM

Lucy,
I had problems one night with the block patterns not showing up, and then it said I had all 12. When I checked the member area, under "visited" shops, I found all the PDFS that you could download in case you missed them. Up at the top it should say "blocks found" and then scroll down and you should be able to see them (if you were having the same trouble as I was) Check it out, because they may be there.

THANK YOU - You were right, the pattern showed up in the list of visited shops. I am certain it did not show up originally.

wvdek 04-12-2010 05:59 PM

Ok need help here.
I registered, then started at my last name initial like it said, clicked on the bunny, took me back to the registration page where my e-mail addy was showing.
Then what? I just keep getting the registration page. No patterns.
I must be more tired than I thought.
I don't have to re-enter all the registration info each time do I?

SaraSewing 04-12-2010 06:03 PM

If you are wanting the spring sampler blocks patterns, I have them all, just PM me.

bstanbro 04-12-2010 06:39 PM

I'm waiting to get the whole thing before I start on it. I have some great flower fabric in my stash for borders and/or back.

I know how you feel. I had eleven and couldn't find the last one. That's why I started this thread originally. I was really getting mad because it's a good-looking quilt and I wanted to be able to make it!

I go from the Shops Not Visited page while bunny hunting. It's more compact than the last name page you're using.

You might be clicking the wrong bunny. There's one shop that you click the link, the home page has the bunny and no words unless you scroll down. It's not actually the You Found It bunny (despite saying it). For the others, you need the You Found It, not the registration bunny. ... Did that make any sense??

I tried, still nothing. I'll check tomorrow AM, the website just might need to be reset. Thanks for letting me know

brushandthimble 04-13-2010 06:12 PM

I started tonight at 6:30; three hours later I have all 12 blocks out of 85 shops I went to. :-)

I need to finish the pioneer sampler blocks before starting on these. Also have a craft fair to get ready for the 15th of May.

LucyInTheSky 04-13-2010 09:58 PM

24 hours later, still no blocks. Ms Sara was nice enough to share the ones she found so I'm content, but, yeah, nothing on the site. I emailed them, and they told me how to go into My Visited Shops (since I hadn't tried that :hunf: ) and I replied that there was still nothing and no response yet. Oh well, I have the blocks, I'm satisfied

bstanbro 04-13-2010 10:43 PM

Wow! Bummer. There must be some real problems on the site with so many people reporting similar issues. I'm aware of how much time I spent on it, and so I can only guess how mad you must be able wasting your own time. I guess all's well that ends well. Makes me wonder whether I'll get involved in one of these in the future, but then I guess we can lean on each other if we need to. It is a cute quilt.

quilterguy27 04-13-2010 10:51 PM

I've found all the bunnies. All 176 of them. Once you click the register me button, on the next page, it asks if you want to view sites you've visited or not visited. When you click on the visited sites, it gives you a list of them and beside the ones that has the blocks, it gives you the option to download the blocks from there. Mine never showed up right away. I didn't find them until I scrolled thru the list of visited sites. Good luck!

brushandthimble 04-14-2010 02:43 AM

Right after I submitted the acknowledgement each time I found a bunny the block popped up there.
If anyone needs the patterns PM me.

You are welcome! I love to share.

wvdek 04-14-2010 06:41 AM

Yes LucyintheSky I will try again. Feel dumber than dirt with this one.
Thank you.
Sara was kind enough to help too, but I still can't get through with her directions.
Besides, I don't reallly have this kind of time with homework and all so guess I will have to pass.

Thanks so much for sending me the link. I love these blocks, and hope to start on them soon.

KGoodhand 04-14-2010 06:58 AM

Okay I have found 134 bunnies and all 12 block patterns!!!
Now to wait until the end of the month to get the 13th block and the finishing fabric requirements! Talk about addictive! I only started two days ago! Okay I guess that means I should now get some housework done too!!!

I usually try not to get involved in their extra stuff. I find 130 bunnies and call it a day. The bonus bunnies upset me, and now this. But overall I do enjoy this. I've found 4 yards of fabric + a few $10 gift certificates. So it's a good use of my time (when I stay calm :D )

bstanbro 04-14-2010 03:17 PM

Good to know. This is the first time I've done it, but several people have written to say they've gotten something out of it. I'm notorious for never winning anything, but we shall see.

quilterguy27 04-14-2010 09:51 PM

Same here. I enter sweepstakes and contests all the time and I've NEVER won anything. I did the shophop and got all the bunnies. Now I guess I just sit back and see if anything comes of it. If not, I will try again. Can't win if you don't enter. The problem is, I'm afraid my ship will come in and I'm going to be at the train station. That's my luck, lol.
