Discover the Echoes of Iceland Block of the Month program: a 10-month quilting journey with video classes, fabric kits, and a spiral-bound pattern book.
Quick answer
The Echoes of Iceland Mystery Quilt Experience is a 10-month Block of the Month (BOM) program that combines video classes, a fabric kit, and a spiral-bound pattern book to guide you through creating an Iceland-inspired quilt.
What makes this a mystery quilt?
Unlike typical BOMs where you receive the full pattern upfront, a mystery quilt reveals the design one block at a time. With Echoes of Iceland, each month’s video class and block pattern is released sequentially, so you discover the final layout as you sew. This adds an element of surprise and keeps the project engaging over the 10-month period.
Who is this experience for?
The program is designed for quilters who enjoy a guided, structured project with video instruction. It suits intermediate quilters comfortable with basic piecing, but the step-by-step videos make it accessible for confident beginners who want to learn new techniques. The mystery aspect appeals to those who like surprises and prefer not to see the entire quilt design before starting.
What if I fall behind or want to go faster?
The program is self-paced. You receive one video and block pattern each month, but you can watch and sew at your own speed. If you join late or need extra time, you still have access to all previously released content. There is no penalty for catching up or working ahead within the month's materials.
Frequently asked questions
- How long does the program last?
- The Echoes of Iceland BOM is a 10-month program. You receive one video and one block pattern each month, but you can complete the blocks at your own pace.
- What is included in the Video Classes option?
- The Video Classes option (product ID 1311922) gives you access to 10 monthly video classes and the corresponding block patterns. Fabric, backing, and the pattern book are sold separately. Choose this if you already have fabric or prefer to source your own materials.
- What is included in the Complete Kit?
- The Complete Kit (product ID 1311512) includes the spiral-bound Echoes of Iceland pattern book, a full fabric kit featuring the Heima collection, and the video classes. You can also add a backing option at checkout. This is the most convenient option if you want everything in one box.
- Can I buy fabric separately?
- Yes. If you choose the Video Classes option, you can purchase fabric and backing separately. The Complete Kit includes the fabric, but you can still add a backing option if needed.
- Is this a mystery quilt?
- Yes. The full quilt design is not revealed upfront. Each month you receive a new block pattern and video, so the final layout is a surprise until the end of the 10-month program. If you prefer knowing the full design before starting, this may not be the right format for you.
