I have no problem with basic. Sometimes simplicity is exactly what we need to destress. But the purpose of the hop is to encourage people to visit the shops. This month seems like it's more of a discouragement. It definitely dampens the incentive. JMHO.

This is about the fifth shop hop I've participated in. I've never had so little success in finding the blocks. I'll persevere, but I won't be happy about it. I like the looks of the quilt, however. I could probably come up with it on my own, but what the heck?

I've visited 50 shops and found one block. I started with L.

I've found all 12 blocks!!!!!!!

I looked at all of the shops but didn't find any blocks.
I've never done one before and was really confused.....

I found all the blocks. Some stores are not available but I have found all the other bunnies.

You don't look for blocks, you look for the "you found it " bunny. Once you have found it, click onto it and it will take you to another page to register that Quilt Shop. If that shop has one of the blocks it will let you know on that page or you can go to "visited shops" and you will be able to see what shops had the block. Clear as mud?

I downloaded the instructions for each block as I found it in case they disappeared!

These online shop hops make me crazy. It seems like lot of frustrating, time consuming work to get the pattern.. I think I'd be more likely to actually spend some time in the shops if I didn't have to spend so much time trying to find the silly MOVING blocks! Not enough time tonight.. Maybe I'll try again later.. Maybe not..

I started at L today and found three in the first 12 shops visited. Cheers, K
