Luau Mystery

We hope you’ll join us for the M50 Mystery #3, Luau. This mystery is a virtual event happening in our Mystery Five-0 Facebook Group in February and March, with the reveal in April. A mystery clue will be emailed to registered quilters each week in March. The reveal patterns (yes, there are two choices for setting your blocks) will be emailed in April. Instructional videos for each clue and the reveal patterns will be posted in our Facebook group. Join our group and watch for details!

Quilters register to participate in Luau by
purchasing $50 (or more) in my booth at shows, or online, including fabric, notions, patterns, kits, or an M50 coupon for later use. Both settings for Luau differ in size (Luau Torches 65”x83” and Luau Feast 75”x75”) and feature the same SEVEN beautiful
fabrics. Our carefully curated kits reveal ALL of the fabrics we’ve chosen for Luau – no mystery here – you get EXACTLY what you see. OR, if you want to dig into your stash, we will share a video (late February) in our Facebook Group that will help guide you with your fabric choices.
While the name of the quilt is Hawaiian-themed, the design of the finished quilts are NOT. Choose fabrics that appeal to you, and you are sure to love your finished quilt.

Slip on your sandals, and thread your needle—Luau is the next unforgettable chapter in the Mystery Five-0 quilt series! As you stitch through four beautifully crafted clues, you’ll follow our intrepid fabric sleuth, Lara Langston, during a quiet stay on Maui between island-hopping tour seasons. She plans to finish her quilts… but the islands have other ideas. One morning, a hand-made luau invitation—from an event discontinued fifty years ago—appears mysteriously beneath Lara’s door. Everyone connected to the old gathering is long gone… or so the island believes. Why was Lara chosen to receive this relic from the past? And who delivered it in the dead of night?

Armed with her Featherweight, fierce curiosity, and an uncanny eye for the details others overlook, Lara is once again pulled into a puzzle only she can piece together. Between sunsets, stitching sessions, and unexpected clues, this Maui mystery unfolds one seam at a time. Join the Luau Mystery Quilt —because with Mystery Five-0, every stitch leads you deeper into the story.

Island Hopping Mystery

A mystery clue will be emailed to registered quilters each week in November. The reveal patterns (yes, there are two choices for setting your blocks) will be emailed in December. Instructional videos for each clue and the reveal patterns will be posted in my Facebook group. Join the group today!

So What's This Mystery All About??? 

Pack your bags and your sewing kit— Island Hopping is the next sun-soaked chapter in the Mystery Five-0 quilt series!

As you stitch through four cleverly crafted clues, you’ll once again be guided by our fearless fabric sleuth, Lara Langston, as she returns to Hawaii as travel director for a quilter’s island-hopping tour. Between breathtaking views and fabric-filled fun, Lara finds herself drawn into a decade-old cold case —a puzzle entrusted to her by longtime friend and FBI Cold Case agent, Dexter Ambrose.

Armed with her trusty Featherweight machine, sharp intuition, and a knack for seeing patterns others miss, Lara balances quilting adventures with uncovering long-hidden truths.
