This year’s East Tennessee Shop Hop 2009 is happening June 18-27.
The Shop Hop is a group of 15 shops that have something to offer quilters. They have come together and devised a great way for customers to participate in wining gift certificates valued up to $1500.00 and at the same time getting a chance to visit all locations in a timely and organized method.
Seymour's own Exquisite Quilting on Chapman Highway is also participating.

The store want you to come join the fun!
Each shop will feature one of the newest products available and will have samples to inspire and amaze you.
It is suggested that you get with your friends/quilting buddies for a great summer get away.
There are pamphlets at each shop with a general map to help locate the shops. In additions, the shops have placed signs outside of their businesses to help identify them as part of the Shop Hop.
