It’s a Mystery
Fabric Choices-high contrast works best
Have you ever made a mystery quilt? If not, they are fun! I made my first Mystery Quilt several years ago when a local shop was running a mystery quilt project. It was perfect for me as a new quilter. I did not really know what I wanted to make and I was a little bit uncomfortable in the quilt shop with so many fabric choices! The mystery quilt required just three fabrics so I did not have to make many overwhelming decisions. Perfect! The shop also posted what the quilt looked like, so I could make sure that my pieces were accurate as I went along. In the end, I had a gorgeous quilt that would have looked too intimidating to me to try if I had seen what it would look like in the beginning. Now that I have a quilt shop, I wanted to pass on this experience to others, so if you have not picked up your FREE pattern at the shop, please join us by picking up your pattern next time you are in the shop. I would like to thank Nancy, our Mystery Quilter for making the sample that is in the shop and providing these great pictures of her “in progress” Mystery Quilt. Let us know what you think!
This quilt will be completed in six steps, this is what the completed Step 1 looks like:

I see that you are doing a myster quilt and that people can pop into the shop and pick up the clues each month. What about those of us online that are wishing we could join in – is there any way you can send us the clues too, or are they available on your website somewhere? I’d love to take part and join all of you.

Please provide a link to your Mystery quilt clues or can they be sent via email?. I would love to participate but cannot get into your store as I live out-of-town and do my shopping online. I love mystery quilts and your site. Thank you. JC

Judy,
I have been begging the designer of the mystery quilt to let us post it online, but no luck! The copyright does not allow us to post the quilt online. I’m sorry! Thank you for your post and would love to see some of your quilts! If you send us a picture, we will post them!
