    Thanks fabric whisperer for letting me know that. How does a person find out about these shop hops to begin with?
    Go to this link and sign up.

    I did the fab shop hop but I couldn't find two.
    Bear Paw
    Fabric Attic

    Also there are still 3 shops "not available". Will they ever be?

    not sure if those will be available... and I like the Bamboo shop! We found all 13, but only had 9 after finding all 176 bunnies ~ my daughter revisited a few shops, and we got the last four blocks ~ finally. Not sure if that's normal? My 13-year old is now addicted to fabshophop!

    I just went to the fabshophop webpage, and since I am so very new to this... I read all the instructions on how to do it, what to do, and when to do. lollll. On one page it says that the blocks move around. Below is a copy and paste of what was said in the instructions:
    ***

    "'Remember that the blocks are moving around all the time, so you may need to check the shops more than once to find them all—a great reason to revisit your favorite shops!'"

    Okay, I have another question. I registered for the shop hop. I clicked on a store that was listed. Now, does the rabbit show up on the first homepage of each website... or do I have to look under each and everyyyyyyyyyy subcategory of everyyyyyyyyyyyyyy single website? lolllll.

    scroll up and down the homepage of each shop ~ 85% of the stores will list a "clue" as where you'll find the April bunny... Some give you a riddle. Some give you a link, and you "chase the bunny" thru their site :) Its fun, great thing for when you're bored or have a couple hours, because after you get the first pattern, you'll want "just one more shop" to see if you get another pattern LOL

    BTW ~ when you find the little pink icon (the color changes each month, you're looking for pink during April) ~ click on it... it will take you to the fabshophop page to click / submit your entry. When you click submit, your going to have a page with a link to take you right back to the "list of shops" ~ IF you've found one of the block patterns, little picture will show up ... click on the block layout pic, and it'll download your PDF of that block

    Lollllllll, some of the clues are not by the Bunny Signature. When I first started looking, I did not know that there would be clues... i must have clicked through 200 pages of items. lolllll. After I realized what was going on, I went back to the ones I could not find and redid them. I have about 20 of them so far. Thanks for your help! And thank you for the heads-up about how to find the pattern.

    How are the bonus prize winners selected? Randomly or do you have to sign up for the newsletter at the shops?

    You do not have to sign up for each and every news letter at the shops. I think you just need to find the Bunny at each shop. I do believe that the winners are drawn randomly.

    Some of the shops will have thier own giveaways if you sign up for their newsletter... but that is just for their own website.
