Mystery Quilt 2013 Quilt Along

Information

To celebrate National Quilt Month in March, Connecting Threads will offer a Mystery Quilt 2013 Quilt Along. This is our first Mystery Quilt and promises to be lots of fun for all. We think you will enjoy making this quick and versatile, three-part pattern, suitable for beginning and experienced quilters. The catch is that you won’t know what the quilt looks like until Part 3!

The finished quilt will be a lap quilt or throw, approximately 51-1/2" x 68-1/2".

You will need an additional 3-1/4 yards for a three-pieced back.

Binding - At least 250" of a continuous strip.

This would not be a good first quilt. Having said that, it is an instructional pattern. Each section is accompanied by detailed notes and photos for each step. Some of the piecing is very easy, some requires more precise work... but Ann provides many hints to help you be successful. The quilt is for a confident beginner with experience sewing 1/4" seams.

Comment by Lynne Wurzer on February 8, 2013 at 11:45am: OK Ranchmom and Kathy. I'm going to try to keep up with this. I've never participated in a Mystery Quilt, so this should be fun! And like Ranchmom, I have so much going on, what's one more project!

Comment by ranchmom/OR on February 8, 2013 at 11:42am: HI, I couldn't resist this, I figured I have so many projects going now what difference could one more make.
