MysteryFive-0
Here at Purrfect Pastimes, we're thrilled to bring you an exclusive quilting experience like no other!
As a Charter Member and partner of Mystery Five-0, we're delivering extraordinary mysteries designed to spark creativity, build community, and keep you guessing.
Each year, we'll be bringing you three brand new Mystery Quilts and in between will be short one-day mini mysteries to keep your sleuthing skills and creativity in practice!
Get ready to reveal stunning quilt designs, one clue at a time!
Outline of the two different mystery programs offered:
Mini Mystery Quilts are FREE one-day virtual events that make a small quilt. You must be a member of our Mystery Five-0 Private Facebook group to participate. You can purchase a curated bundle or use your stash.
Mega Mystery Quilts are larger throw-size quilts and require a $50 registration. These are offered three times throughout the year, run for 5 weeks, and all clues are emailed to registered members. You can purchase a curated kit or use your stash. The $50 registration is still required if using your stash.
Surf's Up! Mystery Quilt ($50) - July 2026
We hope you’ll join us for Surf's Up, the 4th MysteryFive-0 Quilt in the Hawaiian Paradise series!
This mystery is a virtual event happening in our Mystery Five-0 Facebook Group in June and July, with the reveal in August. A mystery clue will be emailed to registered quilters each week in July. The reveal patterns (yes, there are two choices for setting your blocks) will be emailed on July 29th. Instructional videos for each clue and the reveal patterns will be posted in our Facebook group. Join our group and watch for details at: https://www.facebook.com/
Quilters register to participate in Surf’s Up by purchasing $50 (or more) in-store or online, including fabric, notions, batting, classes, or an M50 gift certificate for later use. Both settings for Surf’s Up (Hang Ten and Riptide) measure 60”x76” and feature the same beautiful fabrics. Our carefully curated kits reveal ALL of the fabrics we’ve chosen for Surf’s Up – no mystery here – you get EXACTLY what you see. OR, if you want to dig into your stash, in late June we will share a video in our MF0 Facebook Group that will help guide you with your fabric choices. While the name of the quilt is Hawaiian-themed, the design of the finished quilts are NOT. Choose fabrics that appeal to you, and you are sure to love your finished quilt.

Lara Langston's Story Continues....
Grab your shades, catch your breath, and thread your needle—Surf’s Up is the next wave in the Mystery Five-0 quilt series!
As you stitch your way through each clue, you’ll follow fabric sleuth Lara Langston as she returns to the Hawaiian islands, where the rhythm of the ocean promises rest… and delivers anything but. After a powerful storm rolls through the coast, an unclaimed surfboard washes ashore—weathered, unfamiliar, and unlike anything the locals have ever seen. No one knows where it came from. No one knows who it belongs to. But those who’ve seen it up close can’t shake the feeling that it wasn’t shaped for ordinary waves.
When whispers begin to circulate and questions go unanswered, Lara’s curiosity is impossible to ignore. With her Featherweight at the ready and her instincts sharper than ever, she begins to study the board—its lines, its markings, and the subtle details others overlook. What she discovers will pull her deeper with every clue… like a current she can’t resist. Join The Surf’s Up Mystery Quilt—because with Mystery Five-0, every stitch draws you further into the tide.
Surf's Up is a virtual event starting July 2026. A mystery clue will be emailed to registered quilters each week for five weeks. The reveal pattern will be emailed in July. Instructional videos for each clue will be posted in our Mystery Five-0 Private Facebook group. Join our group and watch for details!
And remember, with Mystery Five-0, your next clue is always just a seam away!
