Lupine & Laughter Mystery!

 

Welcome to our 2025-2026 Quiltville Winter Mystery!

This year's mystery gets its inspiration from somewhere I've been in the past year or so- ICELAND!

Our yearly Quiltville Winter Mystery begins in earnest with Part One going live on - PLEASE READ - NOVEMBER 21, 2025!

I will be releasing one clue each Friday until our Mystery winds up sometime in January.

All posts relating to the mystery will be linked here for easy access to the posts.

Please remember to save all PDF copies where you can find them before the mystery is retired in February.  At that time it will become a pattern booklet for purchases and I will be unable to provide you with parts you are missing.


My Craftours group in Iceland!

Let's have some fun!

10/24/25: Introduction

11/21/25: Part One

    I'm excited, I've followed every here and there over the years and wanted to be a part but always fell behind. I have now put this in my phone as a reminder and promise I will try my best to keep up :) You always have so much going on and are so helpful. Thank you!! Hope all goes well with you and your family

    1. I wouldn't worry about keeping up...I do it at my own pace and am almost finished with Rhoady Trail. Then onto the next!

  5. I'm looking forward to starting this mystery. I love the various shades of purple and the ice blue. Not a pink person so I am curious what I come up with to replace pink. I have my fingers crossed that I don't ruin it with doing a change. thank you for the mysteries! Good luck to you and your family and for a very positive rehab and heal for Jason.

    I am looking forward to this as I like quilt alongs. You are new to me but anything using purple is a must try. I am having problems finding the half rectangle trim ruler in stock anywhere. Will you be restocking before it's needed or giving alternate directions on trimming? Kelly

  10. I am really looking forward to getting started on this years mystery because of the loss of my partner in June of this year. I am so lonely in this apartment and he literally took care of me because of my illness leaving me to only quilt and watch TV. I swear I still hear his voice around the apartment so I need to get my mind on something else. He always had the best eye when it came to matching fabric and what looks good together. Anyway I am really excited about this mystery!
