Welcome to the first look at my selection of fabric choices for the Spring release of Sheila Christensen’s Mystery Quilt. The next Mystery Quilt starts in July 2025. I am sure that I will have a fabric selection to take your fancy. Let’s figuratively dive in!
What is a Mystery Quilt?
If you have never heard of the Mystery Quilt then let me fill you in with what is on offer. This is a quilt designed by Sheila Christensen @mysteryquilter and it is a puzzle quilt over 10 months.
The main feature of this BOM and the part that sets it aside for other Mystery Quilts, is that ALL the pieces come to your PRE-CUT! That’s right there is no cutting involved, so when the parcel arrives you can just open up and start sewing.
Each parcel contains that month’s puzzle instructions and all the pre-cut fabric pieces to make the blocks. Pieces are kept simple: triangles, squares and rectangles and at the end the final puzzle is revealed to give you a beautiful finished quilt top.
It is a Mystery or puzzle as you don’t know what the finished quilt will look like until the final reveal, but the quilts are very cleverly designed by Sheila and always turn out fabulous.
What are your options?
Each of these six colourways I have carefully selected for you to choose from, so I hope you see something that takes your fancy?
Here is a closer look at the fabrics chosen for this Mystery Quilt.
