Presenting the 'Enchanting' QUILT BLOCK DESIGNS For ABQ Shop 2024 !
'Featherweight' Hummingbird
Busy Bee Quilts
Welcome to ABQ Shop Hop!
Discover the Art of Quilting at ABQ Shop Hop
Our New Mexico quilting community is strong, vibrant, and creative!
The ABQ Shop Hop is a fun activity for quilters and fabric collectors to enjoy
the craft we all love, experience new shops, and make new friends!
So, grab some friends and enjoy a weekend of hopping from shop to shop.
Pick up your Passport at the first participating shop you visit
& get it stamped at each additional shop you visit.
Leave your completed Passport (10 stamps) with the last shop
& you’ll be entered for the grand prize drawings!
All shops will have a unique block and coordinated project using their block.
The block pattern will be FREE at each shop
Block fabric kits will be available for $8.99 (while supplies last).
Project patterns will be available to make a memorable 2024 ABQ Shop Hop project.
Each shop will also be designing a quilt pattern coordinating all blocks,
with quilt kits for sale in their shop!
2024 Shop Hop theme is... "Enchanting"!
All the shops have designed a
unique quilt block that goes along with
the selected theme, and will contain shared colors for a cohesive quilt project.
(This year, shops will also be designing
custom setting kits for you to choose from!)
10 Quilt Shops... 3 Days... Unlimited FUN!
