Join the Fun with the Brown Bag Mystery!

This year’s mystery is Two Step Tango, and our kits will be available for sale on our website starting Friday, January 30.

The Brown Bag Mystery is an annual quilting adventure you won’t want to miss! Participants purchase a “brown bag” kit filled with mystery fabrics and cutting instructions, carefully designed by Karen Montgomery. Every two weeks, starting March 21st, you’ll receive new pattern clues by mail, along with step-by-step video tutorials in a private Facebook group, gradually revealing your quilt’s final design on May 16th - Reveal Day.

It’s a collaborative, secret-filled journey where the joy is in the surprise—and the creativity! Local shops sell these themed kits, giving quilters a chance to craft a one-of-a-kind quilt without ever seeing the final pattern in advance. Whether you’re a seasoned quilter or looking for a playful challenge, the Brown Bag Mystery is your ticket to fun, community, and a stunning finished quilt.
