Fig Tree DESIGNER SELECT SOLID BUNDLE… brought to you by MODA!
July 20, 2016
If you are new here today, welcome to my little corner of the world wide web!
I know I have already talked just a wee bit about these this summer but today is a special day in blogland. It is MODA BELLA SOLIDS DAY! If you float around a little today, you might notice that several of us designers are talking about our bundle… all of them are quite yummy, each representing the colors in that designer's signature palette.
Ours is…. well, classic Fig Tree. Not pastel. Not primary. Not totally bright, not totally soft. Somewhere in-between. "Fresh Vintage" is how we have always called it. But this bundle can be best described as plain SHERBET… there is no two ways around it. SHERBETS all of them!
Our BELLA SOLID colors include the following: ivory, butterscotch, cantaloupe, coral, persimmon, light lime, chartreuse, mint, green apple, parchment, fig tree wheat and faded black.
MODA offers them DESIGNER SELECT SOLIDS BUDNLES in these yummy little stacks of fat quarters available at quilt shops worldwide and we also offer them in 1/2 yds. on our site HERE.
When it came time to make some quilts with the bundles… well, we went a bit SHERBET crazy and created an entire book full of them. I guess I'm not nothing if not a bit obsessive… wait, did I say that out loud?
Introducing the SHERBETS & CREAMS book.
The book celebrates these lovely little sherbet bundles and all that you can create with them. It has 5 quilts that are all made with the FIG TREE SELECT BUNDLES and a variety of cream/low volume prints for the backgrounds. Each quilt uses either 1-2 of the fat quarter bundles or a single 1/2 yard version bundle, a variety of cream prints [we have cream print bundles too] and sometimes a bit extra of some of the solids for borders, etc. Each pattern in the book specifies exactly what you will need for each one, each one is a bit different.
Here are the quilts in the SHERBETS & CREAMS book. Click HERE for more info…
SLICES
POPSICLES
RIBBONS
...If you scroll back in the blog, you will find that we recently had a quilt along for this RIBBONS quilt. Feel free to jump in even now!
JELLO SQUARES
RETRO
Personally, I am loving every single one of these for the summer. Next up on my personal list… Jelly Squares!
Hope you enjoy a little FIG TREE SHERBET goodness this summer along with me!
Comment and let us know which one of the 5 quilts in the book is your favorite and you will be entered to win a SHERBET BUNDLE GIVEAWAY courtesy of the lovely folks at MODA.
Thanks for following and playing along!

I love the Popsicles quilt! It reminds me of the ice cream truck when I was little and the colors are perfect!

At the moment it is very hot here so the popsicles I can almost taste are favorite. But I love the others to.

Fun to see them all on display - my fave would be Ribbons since I bought bundles of Sherbets and another of the Creams to do the quilt-along - I'm half way to done! But I love Slices, too, and Popsicles - and the others! These are a great looking bunch of quilts - they kind of scream SUMMER, don't they?!
Thanks for the opportunity to make even more!
Posted by: Janet | July 21, 2016 at 04:55 AM
Now, that's not an easy question to answer - they're all wonderful. My very favorite would be ribbons. Thanks for the chance to win a lovely book!

My favorite is "Ribbons"! I just finished piecing this quilt. I also made "Popsciles" and that was fun also! I'd love to win another bundle to make more!

Love my Popsicle table runner (done!). But want the watermelon.
Posted by: Patty Flynn | July 21, 2016 at 06:12 AM
Although they are all quite stunning, I have to go with Jello Squares. Love it.
Posted by: Linda Liquin | July 21, 2016 at 06:13 AM
Difficult decision. They are all lovely. But Jello Squares has such dimension, kind of jiggly like jello. And the sherbet bundle is yummy. Thank you for the give-away opportunity.
Posted by: Cathy | July 21, 2016 at 06:14 AM
My favorite is Retro - I love the movement in that quilt!
Posted by: Vicki | July 21, 2016 at 06:14 AM
Slices is my favorite. Love those sherbet colors!

Posted by: Beth J. Beal | July 21, 2016 at 07:27 AM
What a great give away! Thanks Moda & Fig Tree! It's hard to say which quilt is my favorite because I like them all! But if I have to pick one I would say the Jello Square quilt!
Posted by: Debra | July 21, 2016 at 07:30 AM
Popsicles is the one for summer. So fresh and colorful. Makes me want one!
Posted by: Beth Stanfield | July 21, 2016 at 07:32 AM
It's so hard to choose! But I think the Ribbons quilt and Popsicle are topping the list!
Love these colors!
Posted by: Michelle | July 21, 2016 at 07:39 AM
I love Popsicles. It reminds me of growing up in the midwest in the 50's and the ice cream man walking down our street with his wagon.
Posted by: Miss Jean | July 21, 2016 at 07:46 AM
My favorite is slices. The colors are just so summery looking!
