#QuiltvilleMystery 2018-01 / It's mystery time again
A mystery quilt is a quilt that remains a mystery until the very end. That means that you don’t get a pattern of the quilt you will be making.
Every year my favorite designer Bonnie Hunter (Quiltville) starts a mystery quilt. Everybody all over the world can sew along for free.
How does it work?
The mystery Bonnie Hunter publishes starts somewhere in October.
Her first blog is introducing the name, size and the colors she uses and also tools (like special rulers) that will be used.
After that all participants can go shopping (or diving into their stash) to gather all required fabrics. It is really fun to see the fabric choices of participants in the Quiltville Facebook group.
On the Friday after the American Thanksgiving (Black Friday) the first clue is released: a little piece of the pattern. It gives information on which colors will be used for this part and how many small blocks (units) we have to sew, including a complete tutorial of that part of the pattern. Each unit could be different, like four patches or half square triangles etc.
