The Project

Cotton Cuts - A Puzzle Mystery in real time!

Included with the price of the retreat, we will be sewing a NEW Puzzle Mystery quilt in real time! Every 60 minutes, a new clue will be released to all retreat participants. At the start of day 2, we will be revealing the final design and completely finishing a puzzle mystery quilt in 2 days.

As with all Cotton Cuts mysteries, there will be a choice of 4-5 different colorways to complete the mystery.

All quilts will be in the “Large” puzzle mystery quilt size - 72” x 72”. Cotton Cuts will be offering the option to add extra borders and wide back fabric kits for backing for these quilts. They will be available on the registration screen.
