August 1 – September 30, 2026
The 2026 All Illinois Shop Hop™ features an exclusive line of fabrics by Benartex. These designs were made especially for this event and can be found only at our participating stores. Shop Hop exclusive fabrics often sell out, so be sure to pick up what you need for your projects early during the Shop Hop! Many stores will offer fabric pre-sales. You can order your fabrics early, then pick them up after the Shop Hop begins on August 1.
This year’s fabrics depict the “Prairie State” in beautiful florals. A large panel with six, 10-inch squares illustrations the Illinois prairie landscape. A stripe panel has two repeating 4-inch strips in floral and landscape themes. Complementing prints with color variations include butterflies, cardinals, an Illinois word and icon toss, flower petals, prairie flowers, prairie grass and violets. Ten solid blender fabrics round out the collection.
Design ideas and patterns using these fabrics will be featured in our All Illinois Shop Hop Magazine and on our pattern download page. Our stores also put together many projects, patterns and kits. Look for these during your Great Sewing Adventures™ across Illinois. We look forward to seeing what you create with our 2026 fabrics!
