Are you a quilter who loves a good mystery?

Meet Lara Langston

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. Join the Island Hopping Mystery Quilt—because with Mystery Five-0, your next clue is always just a seam away!

ISLAND HOPPING

We hope you’ll join us for the M50 Mystery #2, Island Hopping. This mystery is a virtual event happening in our Mystery Five-0 Facebook Group in October and November, with the reveal in December. 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 our Facebook group. Join our group and watch for details at tinyurl.com/JSHm50.

Sounds like fun! How do I join?

Option 1: Purchase an M50 gift card, and decide what to use it for later. And yes, you can use it for a future M50 kit, longarm services, or other fabric, notions, etc (just like a normal gift card). Easy peasy! Click here to get an M50 gift card.

Option 2: Purchase any M50 kit, and registration is automatically included. Click here to view the available kits.

Option 3: Spend $50+ in-store or online, including fabric, notions, batting, classes, quilting services, etc. If you're in-store, just mention M50 at checkout. If you're shopping online, you can add the M50 program registration to your cart (it'll be free as long as your cart meets the $50 minimum). Click here to view the M50 registration.

FYI, you will need to register for each mystery separately! There will be multiple mysteries available per year. Each one is totally unique!

Is a kit required to participate?

No, but we highly recommend them! Our carefully curated kits reveal all of the fabrics we’ve chosen for this specific mystery quilt (no mystery about that part - you get EXACTLY what you see). OR, if you want to dig into your stash, we will share a video 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. And don't forget to share your progress and finished results in the group, we always love to see them! 

What about Aloha? Can I still make an Aloha quilt now that the mystery is complete?

Absolutely! Our Aloha kits are still available for purchase and include the full pattern for both quilt settings (Aloha Vibes and Aloha Spirit). And while the mystery is over, there are some great quilts for inspiration in our M50 group to see!
