13 Oct Portland Shop Hop

13 Oct Portland Shop Hop

For Portland, Oregon we have chosen the best quilt stores in the area and around The Embassy Suites. If you haven’t been on a Shop Hop, it’s like a pub crawl only you’re shopping instead of drinking. The shop hop will be taking place on Thursday, November 5th in the morning at 9:45am to 4pm.

We ask the attendees to meet in the Main Lobby of the Embassy Suites. If you can’t attend during this time, don’t worry each shop will extend their discount if you show your attendee badge. If you need the schedule, please refer to your {Portland Information Packet}.
