The ABQ Shop Hop is a fun activity for quilters and fabric collectors to enjoy the craft they all have in common; bringing this community closer together!
Grab a friend or two and enjoy a day of hopping from shop to shop. Pick up your passport at the first participating shop you visit and get it stamped at all the additional participating shops. Leave it with the last shop, and you’ll be entered for the grand prize drawings.
The block kit and supporting project kits can be purchased at Stitchology. Keep scrolling for a how to video on raw edge applique.
The 2026 theme is "Get your Kits" in honor of the centennial celebration of Route 66.
When owner, Melisa Hart, thinks of Route 66 she thinks of classic cars, neon signs and Mid Century Modern kitsch, which lead to the 66 Rose block.
