These unique events benefit quilting and sewing businesses, shoppers, and local communities.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Shop Hops can vary in size from just a few stores to statewide or regional events. They expose customers to new stores and experiences.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Many of us have a &ldquo;favorite&rdquo; store. A place that&rsquo;s convenient, familiar, and that carries the stuff we like. But there is a whole world of new and different fabrics, notions, equipment, and personalities you&rsquo;re missing out on if you don&rsquo;t occasionally branch out. A Shop Hop provides quilters with a specific plan to do just that.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">In a day when brick and mortar retail locations are dwindling across the nation, a Shop Hop works to promote and support quilting and sewing stores, so we can touch and feel the fabric <strong><em>in person</em></strong>. Most quilters &ldquo;get this&rdquo; and understand how important it is to support these places if we want them available in our communities.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Many quilters hop with friends, family, or their favorite &ldquo;quiltsie.&rdquo; They&rsquo;re not just shopping &ndash; they&rsquo;re making memories as they travel around an area together. Shop Hoppers not only get to visit sewing stores, they also enjoy traveling through large and small towns, discovering places they may have never visited before.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The towns and cities that hoppers travel through also offer many treasures. Small town main streets still exist and evoke many fond memories. Shop Hoppers also support these towns as they take a break to enjoy lunch or dinner at a quaint restaurant. Someone along for the ride may visit a local antique store or boutique while hoppers are visiting a sewing store.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Hops are also about other kinds of fun. Most offer a reward, like prizes or discounts, for visiting participating shops. And of course, you get to express your creative side when you return home by making something beautiful with the items you picked up along the route.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The All Florida Shop Hop is coming to Florida for their third annual event during the months of March and April, 2025. It offers the opportunity to explore 70+ stores across the state. Start your adventure by picking up the <em>All Florida Shop Hop Magazine</em> in mid-January at participating stores. This is a great resource to help you navigate the Shop Hop and something you can use all year long as you travel throughout the state.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Whether you hop to enjoy or support your community, we hope that you&rsquo;ll mark a few days on your calendar to explore the great state of Florida and all that its sewing industry has to offer.
