2014-2015 Mystery Quilt – PARQUET

Kathryn Greenwold Quilts
QUILT-Schenectady Mystery Quilt 2014-15
The Mystery Quilt is a year-long challenge beginning in September and ending at our June meeting with Show and Share (and awards!) You will receive one installment of the instructions each month from September through February. This way you will have all the instructions needed to complete this top following our February meeting which should give you enough time to have it quilted for our June meeting.
There will be a few copies of instructions available at each meeting, but they will also be posted month to month on the guild website for easy access. Some people wait until all the instructions have been posted, so they have the Mystery solved before they start piecing, but it’s more fun to work month to month and see how it evolves.
Parquet has been designed in two sizes – a throw and a twin bed quilt. All piecing techniques used are simple and would be appropriate even for a beginning quilter. There is optional applique, but we will use fused applique.
NOTE: Two applique designs will be included in your instructions in later months. One is floral and the other is nautical. Depending on who you might make the quilt for, take this into consideration and choose fabrics that will work well for either of these themes.
This quilt would make a great throw for use at home or a kid’s or soldier quilt. Have fun as the design blossoms month to month!
