M&J's Quiltaways

M&J's Quiltaways has been running Mystery Quiltaway Weekends since 2004. The weekends are held at a Beautiful Bed and Breakfast in Lancaster County, PA. Every Fall and Spring we design a brand new Mystery Quilt pattern for our guests to solve. The patterns are suitable for all skill levels. The quilt is designed for rotary cutting and easy piecing. The construction of the quilt top is broken down into "clues" (steps). Maricarol Magill and June Sculthorpe are the "M&J" behind M&J's Quiltaways.

Maricarol Magill

Maricarol has been a quilter since 1988. In 1992 she founded a group of quilters to create a quilt to celebrate the Centennial of Lakewood, NJ.

She enjoys traditional quiltmaking and hand quilting. All the M&J's Quiltaways Mystery Quilt patterns are designed by Maricarol.
