Shop Hop

Are you asking yourself what that is? Well, from Thursday, March 26 through March 29 the quilt shops in the metro Atlanta area hold what is called a The Greater Atlanta Shop Hop. It's a way for the local quilt shops to come together and have a lot of fun. This year's theme is entitled The Magic of Childhood and all the shops involved in the "hop" carry the theme throughout their stores. The idea is to pick up a "passport" and visit all the quilt shops in order to be eligible for the grand prize. All the shops involved in the "hop" usually have giveaways, refreshments, demos. It's so much fun! Last year was the first time, mom and I had ever participated in anything like it and we loved it. So for the past two days in the pouring rain, we have traveled from Newnan to McDonough to even Marietta to visit five out of the nine stores. I'm extremely tired but oh so inspired.
