This mystery is a virtual event happening in our Mystery Five-0 Facebook Group in February and March, with the reveal in April.
A mystery clue will be emailed to registered quilters each week in March. The reveal patterns (yes, there are two choices for setting your blocks) will be emailed in April.
Instructional videos for each clue and the reveal patterns will be posted in our Facebook group.

Quilters register to participate in Luau by purchasing a $50 (or more) gift certificate, which can be used toward Mystery Five-0 (M50) kits, any in-store purchases, or online.
Luau is offered in two size options—Luau Torches (65” × 83”) and Luau Feast (75” × 75”)—both featuring the same seven beautiful fabrics. Our carefully curated kits reveal all of the fabrics chosen for Luau—no mystery here! You’ll receive exactly what you see.
Prefer to shop your stash instead? We’ve got you covered! A helpful fabric-selection video will be shared in our Facebook Group in late February to guide you in choosing fabrics that will work perfectly for the design.
As you stitch through four beautifully crafted clues, you’ll follow our intrepid fabric sleuth, Lara Langston, during a quiet stay on Maui between island-hopping tour seasons. She plans to finish her quilts… but the islands have other ideas.
One morning, a hand-made luau invitation—from an event discontinued fifty years ago—appears mysteriously beneath Lara’s door. Everyone connected to the old gathering is long gone… or so the island believes. Why was Lara chosen to receive this relic from the past? And who delivered it in the dead of night? Armed with her Featherweight, fierce curiosity, and an uncanny eye for the details others overlook, Lara is once again pulled into a puzzle only she can piece together. Between sunsets, stitching sessions, and unexpected clues, this Maui mystery unfolds one seam at a time.
Join the Luau Mystery Quilt —because with Mystery Five-0, every stitch leads you deeper into the story!

Choose one of our curated fabric bundles to ensure a winning combination for your runner or door hanger (pattern included).
Prefer to shop your stash? You can also purchase the Lucky Break pattern on its own and follow along as you piece this exclusive Mystery Five-0 design featuring the signature double Friendship Star centerpiece and coordinating star accents.

The mystery may be finished, but the fun doesn’t have to end — you can still make Lucky Break! Choose one of our curated fabric bundles to ensure a winning combination for your runner or door hanger (pattern included).

Lucky Break 16” x 40”. Lucky Break is a versatile mini-mystery finish you can style as a horizontal table runner or a vertical door hanger. A bold double Friendship Star anchors the design, while smaller Friendship Stars add sparkle and movement from end to end. Choose your favorite fabrics and stitch your way to a feel-good finish that’s perfect for showing off.
