I have the best surprise for you - a Summer Mystery Quilt!
Just like I promised, we are having a second mystery quilt this year.
This quilt will be fun, simple, and surprising - a great skill builder.
Fill your sunny days with a little mystery and come have FUN quilting with me!
This Mystery Quilt will be a weekly event - June 1st to July 29th.
Quilting clues and recipes will be posted every Wednesday
for the blocks on our Blog and YouTube Channel.
Make sure you check in and SIGN UP for our newsletter to start your journey, with us as your guide.
This project is perfect for ANY level quilter, beginner to advanced!
For piecing, we will be using a sewing machine and Aurifil Thread, 2370.
We will be making 9 block designs, each block repeating multiple times.
Don’t worry, we will share this information with you as we go one step at a time.
Another sweet surprise, this time we will have TWO quilt sizes to choose from!
Yes, you heard that right, you can choose the smaller or larger option.
I will provide the cutting directions for both sizes, either
the perfect couch quilt -or- an ideal bed quilt.
Quilt Info: • Blocks are 6½" -or- 9½" unfinished • Quilt size is 54½" x 54½" -or- 81½" x 81½" • The quilt is 9 blocks by 9 blocks
And the cherry on top,
there will be multiple color options to inspire you!
Fabric Options:
We will be showing the quilt design in a simple, very organized color option using
8 medium/dark fabrics (1 yard each) and 1 light fabric (2 yards).
This simple option will be a template for your fabric choices.
You can choose fabrics from your own stash or we have some options prepared for you:
1. Day Trip Linen Texture Bundle + 2 yards A-9057-L2
2. A Summer Bundle (Trail Hike Bundle, Beach Day Bundle, or Lemonade Stand Bundle)
Your light fabrics are included in these Summer Bundles.
3. A Fabric Collection:
• Blue Jay Bundle and Dove Bundle from our Bluebird Collection
• Practical Magic Half Yard Bundle + 1 yard A-8511-N
• Lady Tulip + 1 yard of your favorite LBQ light fabric
• The Seamstress + 1 yard of your favorite LBQ light fabric
These options will open the door, allowing you to
personalize this project - put your own spin on this summer adventure!
You only need to choose one color option to make this quilt.
Remember the recipe, 8 - 1 yard medium/dark fabrics and 2 yards light fabric(s).
Important Note: If you are planning on doing the larger bed-sized quilt, please double on your fabric.
