    Anyone going? I am thinking about doing it but I would have to go alone which just isn't fun.

    Wow! How nice to hear this is still going strong after all these years. Wish I were close enough to go with you. :-)

    There are 14 shops this year and, if I am not mistaken, that is more than there have been.

    Yes, we started with a limit of 10. There were some noses out of joint over that and so the the Spring Fling came to be with alternate shops. Thee are many shops in NTX that were not even in business when Quilt Country and my shop started all this way back when. I'd love to visit them someday. :D

    i'm considering it - there are so many great shops that I have learned about because of the shop hop - and have never visited!

    The one next weekend is North Texas Quilt Shop Hop. I might try and do one region of the Quilt Across Texas. It's the first year for it and has some duplicates with the North Texas Shop Hop.

    I edited to add links.

    There's also a shop in Celeste (Quilt Mercantile), has anyone been there?

    I've been to the quilt shop in Celeste and was pleasantly surprised considering the size of the town. I'll be going back again.
