Have you heard of the Ultimate Shop Hop? What is an Ultimate Shop Hop you say? It is a unique twist on the local shop hop concept that came about in 2008. The owner of the Quilt Shop Directory WRBQ, Inc. - "We'd Rather Be Quilting" announced the introduction of The Ultimate Shop Hop - a coast-to-coast, build-your-own, one-of-a-kind shop hop experience with 4,500 shops to choose from in May of 2008!
Beginning with the 11th Edition of WRBQ Inc.'s National Directory, as well as their Regional Directories the Ultimate Shop Hop became an exclusive feature for this innovative company. Becoming better acquainted with the quilting community far and wide is the goal. Providing the opportunity for any and every quilter to participate The Ultimate Shop Hop truly created a nationwide phenomenon. Passports are included in the Quilt Shop Directories, currently for sale on the company's website www.wrbqinc.com and at many quilt shops. When quilters visit any shop listed in the directory they can request a stamp on the passport - two stamps if they visit a shop which advertises with WRBQ, Inc.
One day two great quilting buddies were discussing the upcoming annual shop hop that they do in their local area. As they were laughing and talking it was decided that they'd like to visit all of the shops across the country, each and every one! That is how the idea of The Ultimate Shop Hop was born.
The shop hop fits perfectly with the motto of WRBQ, Inc., 'Quilters Helping Quilters'. By participating in The Ultimate Shop Hop, quilters will be supporting small businesses - and fellow quilters - all across the country. The Ultimate Shop Hop gives the quilt shop owners the ability to connect with quilters and artists in new ways and from various parts of the country, not to mention quilters connecting with other quilters they meet as they make the rounds from quilt shop to quilt shop. The goal here is to get quilters on the move and the Ultimate Shop Hop is the perfect opportunity.
As quilters travel from quilt shop to quilt shop participating in The Ultimate Shop Hop many will become enthused and excited by the many new ideas they see or hear about. Where with your average quilting shop hop you have anywhere from 3-5 days to complete the required number of visits to participating quilt shops, there is an advantage with The Ultimate Shop Hop in that you have 6 months to make the rounds.
Having your passport stamped or signed to indicate you have been to a certain quilt shop is not the only task at hand. Viewing all the new lines of fabric, new patterns and seeing the varied samples each quilt shop creates and displays is more than enough excitement for one day. Should anyone need further information about The Ultimate Shop Hop more is available at www.wrbqinc.com, WRBQ's website. The last task to completing the Ultimate Shop Hop is returning your passport to WRBQ, Inc. to qualify for the prizes. Winner's names in the 4 major categories are posted at the WRBQ Inc. website for all to see. What quilter, beginner or experienced, could ask for more?
