It is Easy to Participate

Independent quilt shops or fashion-fabric stores, web-only sewing-related businesses, or design studios offering original copyrighted work or products are welcome to join our FabShop Hop™. Simply hide the bunny on any page you want consumers to visit and your site will soon be hopping!

Throughout each month-long Hop, visitors will explore your site as they search for the hidden bunny and work to qualify for randomly drawn prizes. Thousands will bookmark your site, sign up for your e-newsletter, and return to shop when the Hop is over.

Hop Requirements

You must be a member of the FabShopNet Retailers' Association in order to participate. Membership is currently open to qualified independent retailers and design studios. For more information, click on Retailers' Association or Join Today!

Your web site must be fully functional at least 60 days before the Hop begins. You can add site features after this date as long as you ensure they are working before the Hop begins.

Web sites must be viewable in all major browsers (Netscape, Internet Explorer, AOL, Web TV, etc.).

The FabShop Hop™ logo and prize registrations codes must be incorporated into your web pages.

Each Hop is Heavily Promoted!

Every FabShop Hop™ is promoted using a wide variety of media, including:

The Fabric Shop Network consumer web site, www.fabshophop.com

Notices e-mailed to the 100,000+ hoppers who participated in past FabShop Hops..

Paid ads on major Internet lists that reach more than 500,000 quilting and sewing enthusiasts.

Link and banner ads on web sites targeting female consumers.

Your Investment is Small; the Benefits Huge!

To include your qualified independent quilt shop or fashion-fabric store, web-only sewing-related business, or design studio in a Hop, you'll pay a registration fee of $125. PLUS you'll also contribute virtual gift certificates for use as prizes (10/$10 gift certificates).

You can boost your business further by offering special sales and products to participants during the month of the Hop. Don't forget to invite Hoppers to sign your guest book or subscribe to your e-newsletter so you can build your e-mail list.

"I have been meaning to tell you that the last hop gave us a new customer who ordered $1200+ in her first order and has been ordering ever since! And this inventory sale has given us a new customer that has spent $1500+ customer order. Very well worth our sign-up fee!!! :) Thanks for all your efforts for us to have a successful event."
