Cotton Cuts Puzzle Mystery Quilt Supporting SJSA

I was contacted earlier this year by Cotton Cuts and asked to participate in making a raffle quilt that will support the Social Justice Sewing Academy (SJSA). The SJSA was founded in 2017 and works to empower people to use textile art for personal transformation, community building, and activism. I became familiar with SJSA through my volunteer efforts at QuiltCon in years past, and I am thrilled to be a part of this raffle quilt.

I will be completing Clue #5 in June, and I’m honored to be one of the 9 quilters collaborating to make a 72″ x 72″ quilt design featuring Tula Pink’s Graywork collection. None of us know what the finished quilt will look like. We’re all solving this mystery together, month by month, quilter by quilter.
