Meadow Mystery Quilt - Sponsors - Fabric and Thread

I am starting the count down to the start of the Meadow Mystery Quilt, only 14 more days from the first set of instructions (fabric requirements) being posted. You can find out more about the mystery quilt here.



We have now have over $700 in prizes, we picked up two more sponsors in the last week!  The prizes will be given out randomly to those that submit a finished quilt or quilt top in the reveal parade in April 2017.  Because we have so many great sponsors, I will be breaking them up into a series of posts.  I highlighted the five pattern design companies sponsoring the mystery quilt last week in a previous post.

Today, I want to highlight the five fabric and thread manufacturers and shops that are sponsoring the Meadow Mystery Quilt.  I hope that if you decide to purchase fabric for the quilt that you will consider checking these shops.





The Bear Creek Quilting Company is not only back again as a sponsor, providing a $25 gift certificate to their shop as a prize, they have also kitted the Meadow Mystery Quilt using the Gentle Breeze fabric collection by Maywood Studio!  Mre information about the kit will be posted on July 8th, a day after the fabric requirements are posted.




The Fat Quarter Shop is back again this year too, providing a generous $100 gift certificate to their shop as a prize.  I have worked with the FQS to create some curated shopping lists for some modern fabric options which will also be posted on July 8th.




I would like to welcome Westwood Acres as a sponsor of the Meadow Mystery this year.  Westwood Acres specializes in fabric bundles, both designer collections and Westwood Acre curated bundles.  Westwood Acres is donating a $50 gift certificate as a prize.



Just Sew Now is a wonderful UK based fabric shop and a new sponsor to the mystery quilt.  Just Sew Now has donated as a prize 8 fat quarters of the winner's choice (this giveaway is limited to the European Union).

Aurifil is also a new sponsor the Meadow Mystery Quilt.  You know that I love Aurifil!  It is my go to thread because the quality is wonderful, they have great colors, and my sewing machine loves it.  Aurifil is donating a The Basics Collection which contains 12 large 50 wt spools of thread.  This collection is awesome, it really contains so many go to quilting colors.



We have tons more prizes and sponsors to highlight, stay tuned :)

  10. Can't wait Cheryl! Even though the disciplinarian in me says, Sandra, you haven't quilted last year's mystery (which only finished earlier this year, so really not so bad as it sounds right?) so you shouldn't start another, to which the whimsical person in me says too freaking bad! I'm having fun!

  11. The anticipation is killing me. :) I know I have said it before, but I am terribly excited to start this. I need to spend this long weekend finishing up some things so I can dive right in when the mystery starts.
