Magnificent Mystery Quilt-Along Announcement!!!

I am very excited to announce that the next mystery quilt, the Magnificent Mystery Quilt, will begin on Thursday, July 3rd! 



This is my eleventh annual mystery quilt along!  The Magnificent Mystery joins the Foothills, Midnight, Meadow, Magnolia, Mosaic, Morewood, Macron, Melodic, Malted, and Marble mysteries.  How many have you sewn along with?

The Magnificent Mystery Quilt is a free quilt-along that will run from July 2025 through April 2026 with a set of directions revealed the first Thursday of every month.  This slow pace makes for a fun and stress-free quilt along!

We will kick off the quilt-along on Thursday, July 3rd 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).  A sneak peek of the design will also be available on July 3rd.

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

How to Join in:

There is no cost or official signup for the mystery quilt along, each month on the first Thursday of the month a set of instructions will be posted to the blog.  To ensure you do not miss any of the posts, you can do any of the following:

  • Join the Meadow Mist Designs Newsletter, the newsletter typically is sent out the day after the instructions are posted with a link to that month's instructions.
 
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 a free and an easy to print, downloadable version of the instructions.


2. Prizes - There are tons of great prizes for the Mystery Quilt including thread, fabric, patterns, long arm quilting, and more!  The prizes will be announced in Mid-June.

3. Quilt Kits - A quilt kit is not required for this quilt along, but some options will be provided for those that like quilt kits.


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.  The sneak peek will be available on the first official day of the quilt along, Thursday July 3rd.

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 13,500 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).
