Quilt Alongs
A quilt along (QAL) is when a host guides you through making a quilt. Sometimes the QAL quilt pattern is known and you are making the quilt with other quilters with the advice of the host. Sometimes the finished quilt is a mystery, and you don't know how the quilt will look until the end. This type of a QAL is called a mystery QAL. Usually there is an opportunity to post photos of your progress or the final quilt. QALs are a fun way to join a community of quilters to make a quilt.
