Any Feedback, Murder Mystery Quilt?
I have been getting posts on my Facebook page linking to https://murdermysteryquilt.com/join/ Does anyone know anything about this?
Has anyone participated in the past?
It is quite expensive, when basically all you get is a whodunit novel and quilt pattern for $100. But I thought I would ask if anyone here has personal experience or knows someone who participated in 2018?

Merry Mayhem is presenting a Mystery Quilt on New Years Day. She will give clues every hour that you can download. I have made her mystery quilts in the past and have been very happy with it. It does not cost to participate. More info on her www. I don't know what the www is, just google her.
The photos below is one of her mysteries that I made last year. I don't know the name or number of the quilt so I guess I am not giving it way.........especially after I have already made it and it is my quilt. :-). Also attached a close up of the quilting.

I agree. And open forum to discuss with other quilters isn't enough for me to pay $100 for a murder mystery and a pattern. I can get a lot of murder mysteries and a lot of quilt patterns for that amount. If I want to discuss quilting, I can come here.

I participated in this year's mmq. I won't be doing the 2019. Honestly, I thought some of the directions were poorly written, and frequently had errors. I kept up the first few months, and created a panel that I think most people thought would be the center of the quilt in the final layout. After that, I did some of the blocks, but not all. I didn't like the final layout, and now am glad I didn't waste the fabric to complete all the blocks. I do like the panel I made, and plan to create some borders to finish it.

Thank you for all the comments.
Yes, I am aware of the Bonnie Hunter, Merry Mayhem and other mystery quilts. I am also a Murder Mystery lover.
I am wrapping up the Kaffe 2018 Mystery Quilt and will be doing the Canadian Quilters Association Mystery Quilt in the new year.
Thank you Holly H for your review of participating last year. Poor error filled instructions are a no go for me.
I think I will use the money to buy fabric, or perhaps one of the Violet Craft patterns.
