Keep In Mind. Before You Go

1 Welcome to the 2018 Quilters Quest Shop Hop. You are going to have a blast! Make plans for dinner (put something in the slow cooker or someone in charge of dinner!) before you head out, so you can put your feet up and play with your new acquisitions when you get home. Two days is a reasonable amount of time to plan to spend on the Quest. That gives you travel time and minutes at each shop. If you can plan your Quest for during the week, you ll find the shops less crowded. But, of course, we re happy to see you any day! Shop Hours All shops will be open during the following times although some may have extended hours if they are regularly open beyond these times. See the information for the individual shops in the pages that follow. October 19 October 28 Monday - Saturday, 9:30 a.m. - 6 p.m. Sunday, 11 a.m. - 4 p.m. Keep In Mind Finishers Reward Card.

Please limit your packs to two per person (per passport holder-earn one & buy one or buy two) to ensure that we have enough for all Questers. If there are packs left at the end of the Quest, the shops will sell them. Quest Cuts will be given/sold only to Questers who are in the shop; please don t ask us to give you extra for my friend. Each shop has designed an exclusive quilt that uses some or all of the 60 strips you can collect throughout the Quest. Each shop will provide you with a free copy of their quilt pattern and you can also purchase a Finishing Kit (where available) to complete the quilt. Before You Go Plan your route.

Don t get home and realize that you forgot to pick up that half-yard of blue floral, or check out that new book, or see a new tool demo-ed. Review all the quilt designs at If there is a quilt (or two or three) that really catches your eye, be sure to pick up a Finishing Kit at the shop that made the quilt. Each shop only has the pattern and Finishing Kit for its own quilt.
