"Shop Hop within the Shop Hop"

Many of the participating shops, working together, designed a shop quilt block, using the Nebraska fabrics, that when combined could be a finished quilt, thus a “Shop Hop within a Shop Hop”. Block kits were available for sale by each shop so "hoppers" could also do the same!

Group 1 = Western Nebraska shops contributed quilt blocks to create this quilt (Cambridge, Ainsworth, Hemingford, Arapahoe, Gering, Cozad, Scottsbluff, Holdrege, North Platte, Ogallala, and Valentine).

Group 3 = Southeastern Nebraska shops contributed quilt blocks to create this quilt (York, Seward, Lincoln, Grand Island, Hebron, Hastings, Aurora, and Syracuse.)

Not all shops contributed to the area quilt, they did however design smaller projects also using the Nebraska fabric selections. Projects ranged from hot pads to table runners.

As one can see … I took advantage of both offerings! I see several Nebraska quilts in my future!
