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!

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!

To pick one favourite is tricky! But I guess popsicle if I was pushed.

My favorite has to be the creamsicles,they are so delish. My grandsons loved the table runner!

I love Popsicles. The colors are yummy!
Posted by: Ann O. | July 22, 2016 at 02:17 AM
Popsicle is my favorite. I have a great niece that would just love that quilt!
Posted by: vickie | July 22, 2016 at 02:45 AM
Ribbons is my favorite simply because it is very "doable" as a Summertime project... how nice is it to sew 4 squares together at your machine... and then have some simple shapes to sit and hand applique on while sitting in the yard with some iced tea? Before you know it.... you have a beautiful quilt! I'm enjoying sewing the popsicles for the runner that was in the Box of Figs too... thanks so much!

My favorite is Jello Squares. I love log cabin style quilts and since this is a Courthouse Steps variation done in such delicious colors it is the first one I would make.

Jello squares. Absolutely. There is nothing like this version of a log cabin. I always love your colors.
