Central Oregon Shop Hop
Mingle, Fun & Win!
Why have a Shop Hop?
What is the purpose of a shop hop you may ask or in fact what is a shop hop? These events are here to bring together our quilting community new and old!
The shops in the Central Oregon area love to bring together their customers for a fun opportunity to win gift certificates and a chance to adventure outside of their favorite stores! All the shops in the area have their own unique style of what they bring to the quilting community and carry different items than their counterparts, which is wonderful because as we all know not every store can buy every item in the quilting world (even though we all secretly wish they could).
These events are really about customer appreciation and having fun! We all encourage you to bring your friend’s quilters or non-quilters!
We give you all two days to travel the routine of five shops, Madras to Prineville, Prineville to Bend, or vice versa whichever suits your traveling needs. We encourage you to explore what they have to offer. (Plus find great deals!)
Every quilt shop hop involves a passport with a list of shops that are participating in the event. We have them in print form if you’d prefer to print them out yourselves or just make sure you grab one at your first stop! The goal is to visit all of the shops on the list and collect stamps at each one.
At the end of the event, participants turn in their passports to be entered into a prize drawing. All the shops involved go in together for grand prizes! Be sure to fill out all the information on your passport, incomplete ones will not be turned into the drawing!

Find Your Inspiration!
The shop hop is the perfect opportunity to discover new quilt shops and meet other quilters in the area. Each quilt shop has its own interests. No two are alike. Each has a different mix of fabrics and classes! The inspiration is endless! The shops enjoy displaying new ideas or remakes of older trends with the fabric lines you love or had no idea about! These events are definitely the time to give yourself the motivation to finish those projects you have set aside to start something new!

What is a Shop Hop?
A shop hop is an event sponsored by a group of quilt shops encouraging participants to visit all of the shops hosting the event.
-
What do you do on a Shop Hop?
- Pick up a ‘passport’ at your first stop or download it if available online. This will be available for free on September 1st.
- Make a plan, check the maps, and put all of the data in your GPS. Grab a friend or a group and hit the road!
- Try to visit each shop in the hop. Get your passport stamped. Fill out door prize slips at each shop. Be sure to grab your “mystery quilt” pattern from each shop while you get stamped.
- Have lunch in between your shop hop adventure, each city has restaurants, and/or pack a lunch!
- Explore the shops, look for the qualities and offerings that make each shop unique.
- Turn in your completed passport at your last stop. MAKE SURE YOU FILL OUT EACH SECTION OF YOUR PASSPORT TO ENTER THE DRAWINGS!
- Have a great time!
That is all there is to it! The most important part, having fun. We hope you meet new people, see new shops, learn something new, and come away with more inspiration to quilt and make your projects through the year!
