Shipshewana Amish Mystery Quilt

January 21st, 2008 by Gay

This is a mystery quilt. The blocks may not be posted every month so be sure to sign up for to receive the newsletter because I’ll be sending a reminder to let you know when one is there.

The quilt is a lap size quilt with a combination of pieced and applique blocks. They won’t all be the same size. I’ll be using traditional Amish solid color fabrics reflective of the Amish communities in the Midwest section of the United States. Did you know they are different from those who live in Pennsylvania?
I’ve come to greatly love and respect the Amish (and the English) who call this area home. Each block will reflect something special that has touched my heart and hopefully will touch yours while giving you a better understanding of the community.

All sections have been posted.

Please add me to your mailinglist, I would love to make a Amish inspired quilt. I was part of the fall Retreat at the Farmstead Inn in 2005. This year I’ll miss the spring Retreat, our travelgroup is 5 days early there. But I’m so glad to visit this lovely village again.

Hi Gay,

What a fabulous website, can’t think why I haven’t taken the time to check it out earlier. I’ll be back alot. The patterns and pictures are wonderful and I especially liked the stories with the Nancy Page patterns. I have all of the patterns for the Laurel Wreath quilt, they were in a box of scrapbooks from the 30’s that I purchased.
If you’re going to be at the small block sisters meeting on next Saturday, I’ll see you there.

Congratulations Gayle – looks like you’ve hit on a BOM quilt that is going to be HUGE in the quilt world! I’ll be going to Shipshewana to pick up fabric…will Lolly’s or Yoders have a fabric pack for this? If not, how many different colors are you suggesting?? The layout you’ve posted is so interesting. I’m SO excited about this one!
on 05 Mar 2008 at 7:27 am Penny Jones

I signed up for the newsletter but haven’t been getting anything. I tried to sign up again but was told my e-mail address was already signed up. Did I do something wrong? Thanks

Please send me a reminder when the first Shipshewana Mystery Amish Quilt block has been posted. I have signed up for the newsletter.

I was looking for a new project (for when I finish Magic Vine) and there you are offering us an Amish mystery quilt. Bless your heart – you sure do know how to keep our hearts happy and our hands busy.
on 09 Mar 2008 at 4:19 pm denise

wOW! i HAVE STUMBLED ON ANOTHR of your wonderful entries. Thank you for the time you take to give so many so much pleasure. Now I visit your site every day, sometimes it the last thing I do at night, and have very pleasant dreams. Cheers ,
on 10 Mar 2008 at 9:37 am Gayle

I’ve been asked what color fabric I’m going to use for the background on the Amish quilt and the answer is black. If you go shopping for fabric remember there are blacks and then there are blacks. Gray black, blue black, red black and the black as dark as night. The dark as night is the one you want. Seems like the last bolt I purchased was from RJR Fabrics. I believe Keepsake Quilting is selling a nice solid color black but when in doubt, call Yoder Department Store in Shipshewana, Indiana and the girls in the fabric department can help you. How much to buy? I usually get 3 yards for a quilt this size.
on 11 Mar 2008 at 8:06 am Gayle

Cindi -

You’re brilliant! I should hire you for marketing. A kit for this quilt? Now why didn’t I think of that?
I have the first block group ready to post but have been busy with other things and haven’t gotten to it. I’ll take a look at fabric requirements and if I can’t put something together I’ll talk to Lolly’s about putting together a kit.
Thanks for the great idea.

on 30 Mar 2008 at 11:13 am Theresa

Hi Gay,
I’d love to be included. Anything Amish excites me. I am beginning to love the way that solids work together. I think I heard from Edith and Janis that the RJR black is the best. And a kit from Yoders or Lolly’s is an exceptional idea. Although I certainly have plenty of solids and will probably allow myself to get some more at my next visit to Shipshewana.
on 30 Mar 2008 at 4:59 pm Kathy

Hi Gayle,

I love the layout you have planned for this quilt. Please sign me up for your newsletter as I know I don’t need to start anything new, but this one is intriquing.

on 08 Apr 2008 at 5:19 am Connie~ N.Ontario, Canada

Hello Gayle~
I dearly enjoy your site which has/is providing me with sooo much ammunition for my creative needs, and do want to be on your newsletter list. Our only sewing centre is closing this month, and has sold most stock that is of interest to quilters, so I would appreciate hearing from you, when time permits of course, the yardage amounts of which Amish colours I shall need to get when I do travel. I won’t be able to get a kit as I will need to do this$$$ over time.
I hope you and Clutch take some rejuvenation time now and then…. we sure don’t want you to ‘crash’!!!

Gayle,
Thank you for the new blocks recently posted….Section 2 of Amish and Midget Blocks.

I will be taking much anticipated trip(tour group)to your part of the country this week. We will be at a Resort in Traverse City and then to Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island.(we may even pass on the street).

So much “crazy weather” all around, I’m hoping for good traveling. I don’t really know how to pack, so will take clothes that I can layer or remove.

I have my stitching packets ready to take along.
on 16 Jun 2008 at 9:27 am Brenda P

on 08 Jul 2008 at 6:45 pm Wendy

Gayle, Love these blocks!!! I did find the list of colors, but I noticed when you give the directions for the blocks, you don’t give the color you are using. Is this something you could do, or is there a reason you don’t give the colors? Just wondering!! Not sure if I am on your mailing list, so would you please add me?!! Thank you sooo much, Wendy

Hi, First let me say Thanks bunches for all of the fun stuff you give us to do.
I just now realized that I need to request to be advised when new blocks are added for the Shipshewana Amish Quilt Mystery, so please add me. I have been watching since you first posted this and can’t seem to remember seeing the fabric requirements. But I could be wrong I might have them backed up somewhere. Again, Thank you so much for everything and for putting up with us late timers! Donna Rae

Hello,
I need a little help.
What is the total size of the quilt mystery?
and what is the size of each block?
Thank you tell us these details because for us who work in centimeters it will be easier.

I want to do the Shipshewana Amish quilt but can not find the page with the fabric requirments on it.
Thanks for your help.

I signed up for your newsletter and I’m not getting them.I signed up again and was told I’m already in the system.
I’m doing your Shipshewana Amish quilt but I can’t finish it because I can only get the first 4 blocks.
The Sally Floral is the same thing.

HELP…PLease… i love your patterns.

Pat
on 07 Jan 2009 at 5:01 am doris

Sorry you’re having “issues” (nasty business that spam) but frankly, I needed the breathing space anyway. I absolutely adore – no – I absolutely love your patterns.

You’ve kept me super busy for the past 2 years – I completed 2 of the State Fair Samplers last year and some smaller projects in between the months. I did 3 of the Sally Post Floral Samplers this past year – 2 in her size and 1 98×98 for my DS bless his heart which I finished the end of November. In between I’m working on the Shipewana project – which gives me the combined piecing and applique – which keeps me excited.

Since was tired of knitting socks over the holidays, I thought I’d whip up a Tulip Bouquet so I could swap out the wall hanging above my bed. After I put it together, I realized what a great twin bedspread it would make if I put 2 panels together. I’m using a 4″ braided border with 1/2″ seperator strips top and bottom plus maybe a 5 inch background piece for length. I’m in the process of making smaller tulips for the sides for width – haven’t figured out “all” the details yet – guess it’ll tell me what goes where. It’ll be for my oldest daughter – she has MS and lives in a nursing home – it will certainly brighten up her area and I’ll tell her you gave us the gift of the pattern………Thank you so very much.

Me again. Obviously there is a typo error. I meant to put 4 not a doolar sign.
on 27 Jan 2009 at 1:06 pm Suzanne

Hi,
I signed up for the newsletter, too, and I haven’t received anything. I am also confused. Are there more blocks to the Shipshewana Amish Quilt available yet? I can only get the first four. Please let me know as I am anxious to see the rest of it. What I have seen is absolutely wonderful.
Thanks!
on 29 Jan 2009 at 7:04 pm Barbara Manchester

When will the remainder of the blocks for the Shipshewana-Amish quilt be posted. I have th four that are currently listed.

Thank you.
on 01 Feb 2009 at 8:12 am Judy C

Please, please advise ALL OF US how you see this mystery quilt taking shape. You said 2008? – or did you mean 2009? – 2010? I wait and wait, look and look, hope and hope and still we have not moved from the first four blocks. I have never received notification of a block (for the first four) being posted, so not sure if that works. Please advise. I am anxious in NC. I think it is beautiful so far, but would like to complete it. THank you “sew” much for ANY information.
on 16 Feb 2009 at 3:50 am Carolanne

I was wondering if this site is down or am I having trouble on my end getting anything new since Jan. 2, 09? There doesn’t seem to be any new posts since then.

Gay,
Thanks for the new Shipshe block! Speaking of Shipshewana……will you be going next month?

Kathy
on 23 Mar 2009 at 12:59 pm Melissa

on 03 Jun 2009 at 9:13 pm Lori, CA

Is this it? Will the remaining blocks ever be listed for this quilt? I keep coming back but there never seem to be any thing beyond 5. Since the last posting was in early May I am thinking this is it and there will be no more blocks. How sad. It sure did look like it was going to be a fun one! Has anyone heard anything?
on 09 Jun 2009 at 10:10 pm deb

Hi Gayle.. thought you would like to know that I am doing this wonderful myster in Batiks… I am kinda glad that you have taken your time with posting the blocks cause it gave me time to catch up. I appreciate your generosity in developing these patterns for us to make and look forward to see what becomes of this wonderful mystery..
on 11 Jun 2009 at 12:13 pm Christine

I too am delighted with this quilt thus far and am always checking to see if the next installment has been posted. I have plenty to work on while I patiently wait. I am sure that the wait will be worth it. Thanks…

I know we all have a million thing happening every day so no presure from me! I just was wandering if there any more Midget blocks or shipsawana amish blocks. Also when are you going to do the polka dot garden. Thanks for all do give us. They are wonderful stuff.
on 29 Jun 2009 at 9:57 am Peggy Stevens

I have just recently found this lovely mystery. I was disappointed at first to read that it was a 2008 mystery since I thought I had missed it. It appears now that it is ongoing. I would love to be added to your email reminder list if at all possible. Thanks for your generosity in offering this to quilters.

I’m doing the Amish quilt and all I have gotten so far is up to block 5 from the website.
on 12 Jul 2009 at 5:39 am Judy C

Just wondering what the time line is that you see this mystery taking. I don’t think your email signup works as I have never received an email that a new block posted. I really need to know how long this mystery will take. I am leary of making blocks for a mystery quilt that may never be. Thanks for ANY information.
on 17 Jul 2009 at 8:45 pm Jan, Australia

Another quilting friend suggested I see your site. Whacko! I am rapt. In 1997 my husband and I toured the States for a year in an RV and I fell in love with Shipshewana, Goshan, Napanee area and all the craft it offers. Thank you so much for all that you do for we keen quilters.
on 24 Jul 2009 at 2:40 pm doris

We’ve beem waiting ever so long. How much longer before another block or two is posted? I’m anxious to finish it before Christmas.
on 01 Aug 2009 at 4:03 am Rita, Germany

I just have found your shipshewana mystery, and I want to get your newsletter, because I don’t want to miss the next parts of this beautiful quilt.
on 07 Aug 2009 at 6:35 am kathyjdh

Should we give up on the Shipshewana Mystery quilt? I purchased all the suggested fabrics to make it, but there have not been any new blocks available for a very long time. It is really disappointing to not get any new sections. Will this project continue?
on 15 Aug 2009 at 1:39 pm Pat Augustus

I agree with Kathyjdh,is this mystery going to be finished or is it a bust?
I also bought the fabric,signed up many times for the newsletter(Not getting any) and I am totally fristrated.
Please advise us on this mystery. Thanks
on 03 Sep 2009 at 6:40 am Judy, SC

Thank you for the new section. Now, can anyone please, please tell me where to find the list of fabric requirements for this mystery?!!

Thank you in advance for this help.

on 26 Dec 2009 at 3:24 pm doris

After almost 3 years, we’ve only seen 6 sections of this block. Any plans to complete it or have you moved past it and the midget blocks as well.

Please let us know – it’s disappointing to check the site each and every day only to find nothing more for those of us who’re so eager to complete both of these quilts.

Hi Gayle: I just wanted to thank you for the pattern you have shared with us. Can you tell me how much black fabric you used? I have a couple of projects to finish up and I’ll start this next. I have all the other fabric collected. I very much enjoy your patterns.
on 25 Jun 2010 at 4:29 am Lynn S.

I really prefer the section 4 you have completed on your home page (Pieced rather than applique flowers). Any way you can share this design as an option for section 4? Thanks much

on 02 Jul 2010 at 7:23 pm Wanetha

Gayle,
I think the vase in Section 4 is beautiful, but I see you have not used it in your layout. Now that I see it without I think I, also, like the pieced option better. (As beautiful as they are the applique seems a little out of place in this quilt). Are you going to post a pattern for Section 4 “option”?
on 06 Jul 2010 at 3:39 pm adriana suarez

Gayle.
Desde Venezuela,tenemos un grupo de patchwork,y esta actividad nos ha ayudado mucho en estos años difíciles. Encontrar tu pagina ha sido extraordinario, en especial me gusta mucho toda la recuperación y valoración de trabajos antiguos. Muy agradecida por compartir todo tu trabajo.

I’ve been checking out the Shipshewana mystery quilt periodically since I discovered your web site last year. I love the design and can’t wait to get started (well, it takes me a while). I thought I read in your March 2010 newsletter that you would give some information about the fabric requirements. Was I dreaming or did I miss this? Cyndy
