About this Mystery Quilt
This is a small mystery quilt. It will be 40″ x 40″ if you follow the directions. Yes, it can easily be made bigger, but wait until the end to see if you want to.
Clue #1
Fabric Requirements:
Fabric | Amount | |
Background | 1 1/8 yards | |
Contrast #1 | ½ yard | |
Contrast #2 | ½ yard |
If you want – you could make Contrast #1 and #2 totally scappy. For example, Contrast #1 could be a variety of purples and Contrast #2 could be a variety of greens. It might be a good way to use up scraps!
These are the fabrics I used. They are all Island Batik fabrics. The Background is Rice. Contrast #1 is an older fabric with turtles and sea grass … Contrast #2 is two similar coloured fabrics.

Have fun picking out your fabrics!

Wow! This must be a fast mystery quilt if we start with our fabric today…! I’m going to see what I can scrounge up. Surely I have a couple of 1/2 yard pieces and a bigger piece to go with them. Thanks for doing this quick mystery

Hi Gail I’m playing with fabric choices today. Thank you for hosting this very timely QAL. Your Mystery should provide me with the inspiration to kickstart my sewjo which has been missing for a while! 😉⛄️

Hi Carol!
Hopefully this mystery does kickstart your sewjo!! We need to do something in the deep freeze we’re experiencing!!! It’s -9C here – which is probably breaking records … and it’s suppose to go to -15C tonight … burrr …. Hope you’re not freezing too much! 🙂

Hi Gail. I sewed today; the first time in forever! 😉. Isn’t the weather crazy? It’s only -11 here right now but -20 with the wind chill. My son said it was -34 Christmas Day in Drayton Valley. A good time to just stay in for sure 😄⛄️
