Designer Select: Fig Tree Quilts



The Fat Quarter Shop and Joanna Figueroa of Fig Tree Quilts have teamed up to present you with a Fat Quarter Shop Exclusive! Joanna has specially selected 12 prints from her Butterscotch & Roses collection along with 3 coordinating Bella Solids for this special bundle you will only find at the Fat Quarter Shop.




Q: What inspired you to pick the colors and designs in your Designer Select Fat Quarter Bundle?
A: I started off by trying to choose a good combination of prints for the bundle that would allow you to have enough variety to complete an interesting quilt or home decorating project. Once I felt like I had a good group to work with, then I just sought out all of my favorites! I had to try hard not to make the whole grouping caramels and chocolate browns! I also love the idea of adding in the Bella Solids as I think they really “punch” up the other colors in this collection.




Q: What are 3 words you would choose to describe this collection, not including any of the fabric designs!
A:
1. Rich & Elegant
2. A Harvest Table
3. Wine Country in the Fall

*2 Truths and a Lie*
1. I am dying to have a chicken coop in my backyard.
2. I speak three languages, one of them being French.
3. I only own one sewing machine, an old Bernina.

One of the 3 statements is false. Comment on this post telling me which statement you think is false. Answer correctly and you have a chance to win Fig Tree Quilts’ Designer Select Fat Quarter Bundle!


You have exactly one week from the post date.
Good Luck!

  4. 1. I am dying to have a chicken coop in my backyard.?

    Sounds like a lot of work. :P

    ReplyDelete
  5. Actually, #3 seems the least plausible. Is that even possible?

    ReplyDelete
  6. I'm guessing #1 I'm dying to have a chicken coop in my backyard. Beautiful fabrics.

  11. I would have to guess #3. She has to have more than one machine, just has to. Luv all her fabrics...thanks for the chance to win some Butterscotch and Roses...:o)

    ReplyDelete
  12. I think # 3 is false. Beautiful fabric, Joanna! Thank you for the generous giveaway.

    ReplyDelete
  13. I'm going to be different and go for #2! Gorgeous giveaway thank you.

    ReplyDelete
  14. I'm guessing that #1 is a lie. #3 sounds just crazy enough to be true!!

    Beautiful fabrics, by the way!!

    ReplyDelete
  15. I'm also guessing #3...probably wrong, completely a guess. Hugs...

    ReplyDelete
  16. I only have one machine ... and I speak three languages, including French ... I'm guessing #1 is the lie! Thank you! :)

    ReplyDelete
  17. I'm thinking the false statement is #1, the chicken coop. Lots are guess #3 but it's not unusual for a quilter/designer to have just one sewing machine.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Hmmm, that is a tough one. I think I'll go with #3, although any could be plausible fibs! Thanks for the fun!

    ReplyDelete
  19. I'm guessing number 2 is the lie. Because I only own one sewing machine and I'm dying to have chickens in my back garden!

    ReplyDelete
  20. What beautiful fabrics!

    I pick #3 as the "lie". Can't be true, no way ;)

    ReplyDelete
  21. I think it is #3. Who only has 1 sewing machine? :)

    ReplyDelete
  22. I would guess 3 although I wouldn't be surprised. Some people are very loyal to one machine. I only have one that works right now... ;)

    ReplyDelete
  23. I'm guessing #2. I don't know why. Love the fabrics, though!

    ReplyDelete
  24. Wow, this is a real toughie! I'm going to guess #2.

    ReplyDelete
  25. I'm going to guess that #2 is wrong. Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  26. My guess is #1. I only had my one old Bernina for a very long time and did just fine with it.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Seems like I remember reading something about a chicken coop on her blog, so I think #1 is true. I also think I remember her speaking in French, so I think I am going to go with #3 is false.

    ReplyDelete
  28. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this fabric.....please,please please pick me!! I would have to guess #2!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Number 1 must be true...I've seen the cutest tea towel pattern on her blog, and it was a chicken! I would not be surprised if she can speak several languages. I think number three must be the fib!!

    ReplyDelete
  30. I'm guessing #3. I'm in love with this collection and have so many ideas for it!

    ReplyDelete
  31. I'm going with #1, the chicken coop.

  32. I am thinking number 3.
    Beautiful fabrics and bundle.

    ReplyDelete
  35. I am going to guess that #2 is a lie. Thanks for such a wonderful opportunity!!!

    ReplyDelete
  36. I'm guessing number 1. No good reason, just a guess.

    ReplyDelete
  37. I'm guessing #1 is false. Beautiful fabrics!

    ReplyDelete
  38. I'm going with #2!! Such beautiful fabrics I don't think I'll ever have enough.Thanks for the giveaway.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Number 2 looks like the untruth. Love all of your lines but this one is especially wonderful.

    ReplyDelete
  42. #3 must be wrong! today's fq bundle is gorgeously romantic... love this bundle!

    ReplyDelete
  43. My guess is that number three (I only own one sewing machine, an old Bernina) is the lie.

    ReplyDelete
  44. I think it is #1. Love Fig Tree fabrics!

    ReplyDelete
  45. I think #3 is wrong.. I bet she has more then one machine.. hehe
    Love this new line from Fig

    ReplyDelete
  46. I'm picking 3 as the fib. Joanna sounds cool enough to be multi-lingual and raise her own chickens. :-)

    ReplyDelete
  47. I have to say #3 as I thinkshe would have more than one machine

    ReplyDelete
  48. This fabric is so beautiful. She is one of my very favorite designers. I think number 3 is the lie.
    Thanks for offering this!

    ReplyDelete
  49. I love her fabrics! I think #3 is the lie.

    ReplyDelete
  50. I'm guessing #3 is a lie. Even I have more than one sewing machine - a Bernina and a featherweight. Kathie L in Allentown

    ReplyDelete
  51. Just guessing but I think perhaps #1 is the lie.

    ReplyDelete
  52. I'm guessing #1 chicken coop is a lie! ;0

    ReplyDelete
  53. The lie is #3 about owning just one sewing machine.

    ReplyDelete
  54. I'm guessing #3 is the lie. Love the new fabrics!

    ReplyDelete
  55. I'm guessing #3 is a big fib. I'm just an ordinary person, not a fabric designer and I have more than one sewing machine! Thanks for the chance to win :D

    ReplyDelete
  56. I am guessing number 2 is false!

    ReplyDelete
  57. I am sure that #3 I only own one sewing machine, an old Bernina has got to be false. Beautiful fabrics!

    ReplyDelete
  58. I think #3 is not true, that I only own one machine. What a beautiful line of fabric!
    Cindy V. in Illinois

    ReplyDelete
  59. I follow your blog so I know #2 is true and I'm pretty sure #1 is also. So that leaves #3 as the lie. I think!

    ReplyDelete
  60. Beautiful fabric!! I'll guess #3 is false. Thanks

    ReplyDelete
  61. I pick number 1 as a lie, although I once raised chickens and LOVED those fresh eggs!! LOVE the fabric combinations!!

    ReplyDelete
  62. I am guessing #3 because I know she loves chickens since she shared her chicken applique, and I wouldn't be surprised that such a talented young woman knows multiple languages. Love her fabrics!

    ReplyDelete
  63. I'm ging to guess #3. Thanks for the giveaway.
    twelve30{at}gmail{dot}com

    ReplyDelete
  64. Not everyone has more than one machine, but I'd wager she has that old Bernina and then something else too, especially if she does her own free motion quilting.

    ReplyDelete
  65. Just a guess but I think # 3 is false.

    ReplyDelete
  66. I'm going to say #3 is false. Love this new line! Thanks

    ReplyDelete
  67. I'm guessing number 2 is false. Thanks for the chance!

    ReplyDelete
  68. I'm going to guess #1. What a pretty group of fabrics!!

    ReplyDelete
  69. I think #2 is the lie! Gorgeous line of fabric!

    ReplyDelete
  70. Oh what a yummy set of fabric! Love them all so I will guess #3 is a lie... hope to win!

    ReplyDelete
  71. I'm guessing you do not know 3 languages including French :__) k.bugbee dot att.net

    ReplyDelete
  72. I think number one must be the lie, at least I don't think I'd want a chicken coop!

    ReplyDelete
  73. I love all of the Fig Tree fabrics -- they are so beautiful and elegant. To me, it just doesn't fit that the designer would be dying to have a chicken coop in her backyard! I'd have to say that #1 is false.

    ReplyDelete
  74. Three languages, yes, I believe that! The one sewing machine? Hmmm, the chickens? That's tough. I know she enjoys gardening and I can see the chickens fitting into that scheme, so I am going to say that she has more than one sewing machine. I believe #3 is false. As always, gorgeous Fig Tree fabrics! Thanks for a chance to win the special bundle selected by Joanna!

    ReplyDelete
  75. I'm going to guess #2 is the lie-the other two are just quirky enough to be true! :) This bundle is so pretty and "grown up"...I love it!

    ReplyDelete
  76. I will guess that number 3 is a lie.the fabric bundle is gorgeous!

    ReplyDelete
  77. I'm guessing #3, everyone has more than 1 machine!!

    ReplyDelete
  78. I think #3, we all have more than 1 machine!

    ReplyDelete
  79. I think #3 is false! Thanks for the great giveaway!

    ReplyDelete
  80. I think #2 is true,false may be either #1 or #3...

    I'd say #1.

    ReplyDelete
  81. I'm thinking number 3 is a lie; only beginners seem to have one machine; the rest of us have at least 2, not counting overlockers and coverhem

    ReplyDelete
  82. Yo creo que la respuesta falsa es la 1.
    Besos

    ReplyDelete
  83. I think that number 3 is false! Keeping my fingers crossed.....!

    ReplyDelete
  84. These are beautiful fabrics. I am guessing that 3 would be the fib. Thanks so much for this giveaway.

  85. Thank you so much for this giveaway. Those fabrics are so lovely! I think that #2 is false.

    ReplyDelete
  86. I'm guessing that number 3 is false. Thanks for the chance.

    ReplyDelete
  87. man... i'll say number 3 is false.
    i love the fabric line. it's so cozy and sweet.

    ReplyDelete
  88. I will guess that # 1 is not true. Chickens are a lot of work and caring for them would take time away from sewing:) Loving the new line of fabrics- of course:)

    ReplyDelete
  89. My guess is number 2 is the lie. Linda

    ReplyDelete
  90. my guess is number 2. Thanks. The fabrics are beautiful.

    ReplyDelete
  91. I'm guessing number 2! I do love Butterscotch and Roses! It's gorgeous!

    ReplyDelete
  92. All of them seem possible but surely only one machine is hard to live with. I have 5 and I love them all so I am guessing that #3 is a lie.
    I love this fabric range.

    ReplyDelete
  93. It must be number 3 - even I as an amateur have 2.

    ReplyDelete
  94. I'll guess #3 is the lie! Hope i win thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  95. Surely #3 is the lie. If not she should use the profits from this fabric line to buy a nice new machine.

    ReplyDelete
  96. I'm guessing #2 is false. I think Joanna speaks more than 3 languages.

    ReplyDelete
  97. I love Fig Tree fabric! I'm sure that #1 is false.

    ReplyDelete
  98. I realy, realy love this Fig Tree collection and I would love to have som to play with !!! ;-))

    ReplyDelete
  99. Great bundle! My guess is #2.

    ReplyDelete
  100. Sorry I forgot to answer the question... I guess number 3 is false ;-))
    I realy, realy love this Fig Tree collection and I would love to have som to play with !!! ;-))

    ReplyDelete
  101. I think number 2 is the lie.
    Princess Tanya

    ReplyDelete
  102. I think #1 is false. Beautiful collection~!~

    ReplyDelete
  103. Well, you certainly didn't make any of the choices easy did you LOL. I will guess #3 since even I (a beginner) has 2 machines.. although one of them doesn't work.

    ReplyDelete
  104. #3, if you only have one machine, then you must get another one so you can play with your daughter and grandbabies. Fig Tree - I LOVE EVERY ONE ONE OF YOUR LINES SO FAR!

    ReplyDelete
  105. I have always loved everything she does, there is something about those subtle colors. I'm going to guess #3.

    ReplyDelete
  106. I think #2 is false! I Love this collection, but then I love all of the Fig Tree lines!

  107. Thanks for the chance! I would say the number two is the false one!

    ReplyDelete
  108. I'm going to guess that #2 is a lie. Great giveaway, very pretty fabrics.

    ReplyDelete
  109. California Girl looks just dreamy!! I think the lie is #2.
    Thanks for the opportunity to win some fabric!

    ReplyDelete
  110. I think #1 is the lie as because who has time for a chicken coop when there's all that beautiful fabric to play around with!!

    ReplyDelete
  111. I know for sure that #1 is correct. (I would love one too!)
    I think Joanna is a pretty smart cookie, so it wouldn't surprise me that she knows more than one language.
    I know a lot of really talented quilters and designers who only have one machine, so it wouldn't be shocking to me at all if she is among them.
    So......I'm going with #3 is False.
    It would be so wonderful to win this gorgeous bundle.
    Thanks for the chance!!

    ReplyDelete
  112. Beautiful fabric. I'd love to win some.

    I'll guess number 2 is the lie.

    ReplyDelete
  113. I think #3 is false. Joanna did a chicken design for the Country Fair so she probably secretly covets a chicken coop in the back yard, and with all her trips to Europe I'm sure she can speak more than one language. As for #3, there are not many quilters with just one machine! Have to have a back up you know!

    ReplyDelete
  114. I would have to guess that number 3 is the lie. But then stranger things have been true - lol!

    ReplyDelete
  115. This fabric is so pretty, I hope I win it!! I think #3 is a lie.
    Thanks for the giveaway!

    ReplyDelete
  116. I'll go with #2 being false, as everyone needs chickens and at least 2 sewing machines.

    ReplyDelete
  117. Guessing #2 ... 3 languages. She probably knows more than that! Fig tree colors and designs remind me of (well deserved) lazy afternoons -- simple, accepting, quiet, unhurried, lazy afternoons.

    ReplyDelete
  118. I'm gonna go with #3 because it almost seems impossible !

    Thanks for the chance :)

    ReplyDelete
  119. I think the first comment is the lie. Thanks for the chance!

    ReplyDelete
  120. I'm thinking #3 is false. I hope! Thanks for the opportunity to win!=)

    ReplyDelete
  121. I'm guessing number 3. Love this fabric.

    ReplyDelete
  122. I think #3 is wrong - She must have more than 1 sewing machine!

    ReplyDelete
  123. Oh, what pretty fabrics! I think number 3 is not true. Even I own more than one sewing machine! :)

    ReplyDelete
  124. I'm going to guess #2 because who has time to learn languages when there are so many quilts to make? hee hee

    ReplyDelete
  125. I'll take #3. Beautiful fabric and thanks for the chance to win!

  127. I'm guessing #3 is the lie. If it isn't that's just sad!!

  128. Beautiful fabric! I'm guessing #3 is not true. thank you for the chance to win.

    ReplyDelete
  129. Love the fabric, such wonderful colors and prints. I am going with #2 as being false. Thanks for a chance to win this fabric.

    ReplyDelete
  130. I think #1 is the lie. Thank you for the chance to win Joanna's beautiful fabrics. Take care and God bless, Cory

    ReplyDelete
  131. I am guessing that The one about the chicken coop is a fib but it is hard to tell because the other two are very believable.
    Thanks for the chance to win such lovely Fig Tree fabrics.

  135. I also think that number three is the lie. Sure would love to win.

    ReplyDelete
  136. I am going to guess #2 is the lie.

    ReplyDelete
  137. I am going to go with #1. Anyone that describes their collection as Rich & Elegant, A harvest Table and Wine Country in the fall doesn't sound earthy enough to want a chicken coop.

    ReplyDelete
  138. I am going to guess #2 as wrong. I'm pretty sure she speaks 2 languages but not sure about the 3rd.

    Thanks for doing the giveaway. I love the colors in this collection!

    ReplyDelete
  139. After listening to Joanna's interview with Pat Sloan, I can say with confidence that #2 is false.

    ReplyDelete
  140. Wow, that's a tough one. I love this line so I'm going to guess #3. I'm cheaper than cheap and I own 2 machines, one new bernina (I splurged after 23 years with a Janome) and a serger (which is a sewing machine in my books).

    ReplyDelete
  141. I am going to guess #3 is a lie. Love the designer pack. thanks, kathy

  142. I'm guessing #2. carrie dot hare at gmail dot com

  143. I am guessing #3 is a lie - only 1 sewing machine??? Nope

    ReplyDelete
  144. I think #2 is the lie. I'm sure she speaks more than one language. I'm just guessing that one of them is not French.

    ReplyDelete
  145. I have to go with number 3...but it seems too easy! :)

    ReplyDelete
  146. I'm guessing #2 is false. I know she speaks two languages, but I've never seen where she has mentioned French. I know she would love chickens and it wouldn't surprise me if she has stayed with just her trusty old Bernina!

    ReplyDelete
  147. I am going with #3. Who knows if I am right but I like to think she has more than one :)

    ReplyDelete
  148. I too think that #3 is false.
    Thanks for the giveaway!

    ReplyDelete
  149. I am guessing that #3 is not correct - you have to have more than one sewing machine.

    ReplyDelete
  150. I'm guessing #2 is the lie because she very likely can speak more than three languages. As for #3, the irony of it tells me it's true - she does have one machine. And some people have a special place for chickens in their hearts - so it has to be #2.

    ReplyDelete
  151. #1 is not true!
    LOVELY FABRICS!
    THANK YOU!

    ReplyDelete
  152. It has to be #3!! This line is beautiful, hope I win!!
