2025 Dealer's Choice Brown Bag Mystery

FABRICS & KITS > KITS > Brown Bag Mysteries > 2025 Dealer's Choice Brown Bag Mystery

Thank you for checking out our Brown Bag Mysteries for 2025 – Dealer’s Choice designed by Karen Montgomery!

The pieced top finishes at 50” x 66”. If you would like to add border(s) to your quilt top….Karen recommends a 1” inner border (1/4 yd) and 2-1/2 yards for outer border. If choosing a border stripe for the outer border, and want to miter the corners, Karen recommends 3 yards of border fabric.

We have some options you may be interested in:

1. Let Us Pick the Perfect Wide Backing
This is a 2-1/2 yard cut of the perfect wide backing, carefully picked by us at Vermont Quilter's Schoolhouse. We'll carefully curate the the best wide backing to work with your quilt.
Let us pick and you'll receive 10% off your wide backing!

2. Inner Border and Binding Bundle
This is a bundle of inner border and binding that will work with your kit. Choose our Perfect Wide Backing offer and we'll be sure to make this work with your backing also.

Note that there is, again, a bonus project to warmup the techniques used in the Brown Bag Mystery. The recommended ruler for the bonus project is the Creative Grids Square on Square Ruler (CGRJAW7). Note, as in the past, we have again made border recommendations for each brown bag. You can find those recommendations by scrolling to the bottom of each brown bag page. You can click on the item and it will take you to that item if you choose to order.
