Treasure Shop Hop
April 18th to 27th, 2024!
Official information about the annual Shop Hop sponsored by Quilt Shops in the Southwestern Idaho and Eastern Oregon area.
Purpose
Welcome to the Official Website for the 2024 Treasure Shop Hop! Here you can find the dates, hours of operations, and store locations for one of the longest-running Shop Hops in Idaho and Oregon.
This shop hop has been an annual occurrence in the Southwestern Idaho, Northeastern Oregon region for 22 years, and what fun we have had. We have prizes for participants (with amazing grand prizes), activities, opportunities to participate in a charitable cause, a chance to meet with many other quilters, and best of all, lots of fun!
The Annual Treasure Hop is here!
This year we have made some changes and we hope you like them!
We will NOT be selling charity quilt blocks, but we will still be supporting Project Linus and Quilts of Valor
If you would like to support these charities as well as be eligible for discounts and prizes, you will need to purchase a Passport for $10
You may purchase as many passports as you wish, or you may simply do the Hop without any passport.
Each year on the passports, there is a coupon good for a discount off one item at each shop during the Hop. This year, we have increased the discount from 10% to 20%!
We will be doing away with participation prizes, instead, we will have fewer but bigger prizes. The Grand Prize will be a new Bernina B 475 QE Kaffe Edition sewing machine!
You will need to get your passport(s) stamped at every shop to be eligible for prizes, but you won't be guaranteed a small prize just for completing your passport. The more passports you purchase, the more chances you have to win prizes!
We will not be giving out special Shop Hop bags this year. We have reallocated the funds that would normally purchase the bags to instead purchase better prizes!
Instead of having a color theme (since we aren't making coordinating charity blocks), each shop has chosen one quilt pattern from Villa Rosa Designs. During the Hop, each person who enters each shop will get a pattern card for that quilt pattern for free. The pattern cards will be distributed one per person, regardless of whether the Hopper has a passport or not, and regardless of how many passports the person has, they will only get one pattern card from each shop.
What remains the same:
The Hop is ten days long: April 18-27
Regardless of any shop's normal business hours, all shops in the Hop will be open from at least 9 AM to 6 PM each day of the shop, except Sunday, when the shops will be open from 10 AM to 5 PM. Shops always have the option to be open longer hours than these, but we will for sure be open at least these hours.
*Sundays hours are optional hours, some shops may choose to take a rest day and be closed on Sunday, April 21.
During the Hop, all shops will be pet-free. We will not be having our pets in our shops for those ten days, and we respectfully ask that you leave your pets home, too.
*Genuine, well-trained Service Animals are always welcome.
Check here often for exciting updates!
