Melodic Mystery ++ Less than 1 Month Until Kickoff!

The Melodic Mystery Quilt, a free monthly mystery quilt along will kick off in less than one month on Thursday, July 7th! 




The Melodic Quilt is a free quilt-along that will run from July 2022 through April 2023 with a set of directions revealed the first Thursday of every month.

We will kick off the quilt-along on Thursday, July 7th with the fabric requirements and some helpful hints to pick fabrics and colors (you will have an entire month to gather fabrics before the cutting instructions in August).  There will also be links to optional quilt kits on July 7th.

Here are some more details about the upcoming mystery quilt...

1. Quilt-Along Instructions -The monthly instructions will always be posted to my blog as blog posts and on this main page.  Within each instructional post, there will be a link to an easy to print, downloadable version of the instructions.


2. Prizes - There are going to be prizes for the Melodic Mystery Quilt!  Details to be announced. 

3. Quilt Kits - A quilt kit is not required for this quilt along, but for those that would like that option, I am working with a number of quilt shops to offer quilt kits in variety of styles and colors.  Links to all of the kits will be posted on July 7th.


4. The Un-Mystery Quilt - There will be a sneak peek option for those that would like to see the design before deciding to join in.  This year's sneak peek will be a little different than in past years.  There will be no mailing list to signup for, the sneak peek will be available as a linked document right on this page starting Thursday, July 7th.

The only rule is that you have to keep the design completely to yourself as to not spoil anyone else's surprise.

5. Facebook Group - We have over 8,800 active members in our Facebook Group (Meadow Mist Designs Facebook Group) sewing together! Join the group today so you can share and see everyone else's fabric, progress pictures, and finished quilts.


6. Previous Mystery Quilts - The instructions for my previous mystery quilts are located in the Mystery Quilt tab above (and are always available so you can start them at any time).

  1. Even the times when I can't actively participate, I always enjoy playing along from the sidelines. I'm hoping to be a participant this time, but life being what it is, we will wait and see. Thanks

  6. I'm a sideliner too, but I'm intrigued by the title of this one. Depending on how much fabric is needed, I may join in, if I have it in my stash. I have a lot of half yard cuts but nothing much bigger.

  7. I did the first for me mystery with the Macaron Mystery and loved it. I am slowly finishing 2 quilts from the Just one Charm Pack book. One is a struggle as the charm is not measuring 5 inches and I am trying to adjust for that-will wait and see how it turns out, but love those patterns also.

  16. I discovered your blog and quilt along three years ago but just followed (and saved) the first couple of designs. Last year I finally participated -- it was a lot of fun and looking forward to seeing what you have in store for everyone this year.
