Island Hopping
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!
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.
Want to participate? It's easy! To register to participate in Island Hopping, purchase $50 Island Hopping passport for later use. This passport is essentially a $50.00 gift card that you can use now through December 2, either in-store or online. You can put it towards anything you would like! It does not need to be mystery-related.
Both settings for Island Hopping differ in size (Island Hopping Vacation 68.5”x86.5” and Island Hopping Adventure 71.75”x91.75”) and feature seasonal or holiday fabrics.
Our carefully curated kits reveal ALL of the fabrics we’ve chosen for Island Hopping – no mystery here – you get EXACTLY what you see. OR, if you want to dig into your stash, we will share a video (late October) in our Facebook Group that will help guide you with your fabric choices.
