Malted Mystery Quilt

Welcome to the Malted Mystery Quilt, the ninth annual Meadow Mist Designs mystery quilt along!

The Malted Mystery Quilt is a free quilt-along that will run from July 2023 through May 2024 to make a throw sized quilt. You can find all of the mystery information on this page.  The quilt is a throw size, finishing at about 66 1/2" x 66 1/2".

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:

• Visit the Meadow Mist Designs blog on the day the instructions are posted or visit the Main Malted Mystery Page (this page) which will contain links to all of the posts.
