Cozy Up Mystery Quilt Start TODAY!

Welcome to the start of the Fort Worth Fabric Studio - Cozy Up Beginner Mystery Quilt Along! Quilting is the best way to begin a Monday! It's been so hard not sharing sneaks/peeks of this project, but don't worry - I think you will love it! Best of all - you will have a holiday quilt to Cozy Up in just a few weeks! Let's begin!

Week 1

Cutting Instructions - here at Fort Worth Fabric Studio

• We are cutting the ENTIRE Cozy Up Quilt. It will be nice to cut your fabric at once so each week we get to do the fun part - sewing!
• Remember to measure twice THEN cut. 
• Iron your fabric before cutting. Flat fabric is much easier to cut - get those wrinkles out!
• The Snowman print and the Text print are directional, but don't worry - the instructions explain it!
• Save your left over fabric pieces as I will be sharing bonus projects for these scraps. This fabric is just too cute - we must use every piece :).

Block 1 - Snowman - here at Fort Worth Fabric Studio

• Download your Block 1 piecing instructions.
• Use your iron. Pressing your blocks makes the sewing much more accurate (and pretty).
• Enjoy looking at your first 8 blocks for your Cozy Up Quilt! You are quilting!!! Yay!!!

Don't forget - Jodie at Fort Worth Fabric Studio has created "how to" videos too! They are available at the Fort Worth Fabric Studio You-Tube Channel here. This will be Jodie's THIRD quilt so it will be so fun to watch her quilt along with us! Fun fact- She had her son cut out the quilt pieces for her! Yay for helpful kids! 

There are a few Cozy Up Quilts left. So get yours now - here! The Cozy Up Quilt Kit contains all the fabric for quilt top (lap size 48.5" x 60.5") plus pre-made binding! I highly suggest the matching Moda 108" wide back backing set- here - I love not having to piece my quilt backing.

 

I'm so excited to see everyone's Cozy Up Quilt progress. Be sure to tag both @fwfabricstudio and me @mellierc plus use hashtags #CozyUpMysteryQuilt and #sewingwithfwfabricstudio

I can't wait for next Monday for Week 2! PS- It's so weird to be excited for Monday ;).
