The first quilt along I ever participated in was a mystery and it was so much fun! Each week, a new set of instructions would drop, revealing a new block or addition. With each week, I'd imagine how all the pieces would fit together.
During a quilt along, you complete the same steps of a quilt pattern each week. It's fun to post your progress and see other quilters projects come together alongside yours. For the Garden Chain Mystery Quilt Along, you can use the #gardenchainmysteryqa.
To participate in the quilt along, you just need to sign up here. This will make sure you get the weekly emails with all the quilt along information and instructions.
Scared to make something without seeing the finished design first? Here are a few details you may want to know ahead of time:
Finished quilt size is 60" x 60"
There are several smaller cuts of fabric needed, making it a good stash project
The style is modern traditional featuring big beautiful blocks
Everything is traditionally pieced and suitable for a confident beginner
Wondering if you have what you need on hand? Here are the fabric requirements:
Quilt Along Schedule
