Michelle, I go if I like the fabrics.
This year is a go for me. I never make it to all the stores for each block. I usually end up with 6-9. Way too much running around and the stores are spread out.

the fabrics are great this year, so I am heading out to get a few blocks. Even if I end up with 4, they make a nice table topper or centered in a small childs quilt.

What would you do with yours?

My son actually lives in Federal Way.......and although he has offered to spend the whole weekend attempting to go to as many shops as we can...... I have declined....and suggested we go to a few around the area he lives in.

Although....some year it might be fun to try to go to all....a great way/reason to see A LOT of the country side.

havent decided about fabric and project I will do......but most likely incorporating into a wall hanging to remid us of our first visit.

thank you for your post!

I live south of Federal Way. You will be able to get a map and passport at any local quilt store near there. That is actually a good area to just hit several stores. The whole shop hop is quite spread out, but in one day in a relatively small area you would be able to visit enough stores to qualify for the great drawings they have. You would heve enough blocks for a small project, or to add to something larger. All shops carry co-ordinating fabrics. ENJOY!!!
