12 Days of Christmas: Day #12
Happy, Happy Friday Everyone!
Welcome to the 12th day of the
12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS SALE!
Wow… we have together made it to the last day of this crazy 12 day sale! Thank you so much for sticking it out with us. Some of you have filled box after box and some of you just a few stocking stuffers here and there but I want to thank each one of you for following along and participating with us. This is the 6th year we have done this and although it is nuts and we know that each year a few people are unhappy that they didn't get what they wanted, most of you have a great time and enjoy the spirit of this sale!
Thank you so much for taking this ride with us!
SPECIAL INFO ABOUT THE LAST DAY
The last day of the sale is a little different than all the rest. Those of you committed to this sale have become so incredibly good at checking the moment we go live and grabbing your goodies right away, that it is like a Black Friday sale around her every day and we are cleaned out of most fabric items in minutes.
For Friday, we will start to post some products at in the earlier morning PST, then some throughout the morning so as to give the best chance to as many different people… or perhaps even a better chance to some who haven't been too lucky yet. We will not send out any other notifications about when or what!
Given the random times and varying stock of the items we are posting, we won't be showing the items here. If you find them and want them, nab them.
For those who miss them, at least you won't have to be sad about what you missed! Good luck!
Thanks so much for shopping with us! Keep reading below….
Welcome to DAY #12!!
ON THE TWELVE DAY OF CHRISTMAS, MY TRUE LOVE GAVE TO ME…
TWELVE PACKERS PACKING [not the football ones, the Fig Tree elf kind :-)]
ELEVEN ELVES A GRIPING [I don't really want these for Christmas but its just the reality right now :-)]
TEN FIGS A SLEEPING [yes, right about now sleeping is one of the things I am dreaming of!]
NINE LADIES DANCING [we could certainly use a good dance party right about now]
EIGHT CANDLES TWINKLING [I definitely have a thing for candles!]
SEVEN MUSHROOMS DREAMING [yes, I am completely giving up on the rhyming now!!]
SIX TREES A SWAYING [that's the best I can do… I guess my brain is gone by day 6]
FIVE GOLDEN RINGS [that's just fine, I'll take 5 golden rings]
FOUR FALLING NERDS [my house is already filled with those but more the merrier I guess]
THREE FRENCH MEN [Ha, ha… I can barely handle the one Columbian man I have now!]
TWO PURPLE GLOVES [I know, I know, purple is not really my thing but no other color rhymes with turtle!:-)]
AND A CHICKEN IN A FIG TREE.
A COUPLE REALLY IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW…
- Boxes will start to ship [for many of you, your first box has already filled and you are on your second box] by noon on Friday. So if you want to add patterns or other things to your box, do so in the morning so you don't miss out. Think about adding patterns, cream background fabric or some of your favorite notions to that lovely little box of goodies. The leftover gift items WILL BE ON SALE TODAY so don't forget those! Also, don't forget to check out THE NOTIONS SHOP for all of our favorites!
- We will stop adding products at noon PST so you don't need to keep checking after that.
- We are more or less unable to make any more of most of the kits that were offered during the sale. We are however going to be making more of the AND THE STOCKINGS WERE HUNG quilt from Thursday since it is a brand new pattern. If you are interested in that kit AFTER & SEPARATE FROM YOUR 12 DAYS BOX, YOU NEED TO EMAIL ME joanna@figtreequilts.com. THAT IS THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN GET ADDED TO THE LIST.
- But… we are sometimes able to get more of the notions and gift items after the sale is over. If you are still dieing for one or more of the gift or notion items, let us know right away [like today would be great :-)]. If we get enough requests for something, we create a list and order more if the products are still available from the distributor. As long as you are okay if they ship out after Christmas, and not as a part of this sale, we are good. So don't hesitate to ask… as they say, it never hurts to ask!
- If you bought a box and didn't fill it [or not at all for some reason] and your items will go in an envelope… WE WILL TAKE THE DIFFERENCE OF APP. $6 AND DONATE IT TO OUR LOCAL FOOD BANK. FIG TREE WILL MATCH THOSE DONATIONS. LOOK FOR A BLOG POST ON WEDNESDAY OF NEXT WEEK TO SEE HOW MUCH WE DONATED. IF THAT IS YOU, THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONTRIBUTION!
- And most importantly… thank you for shopping with us! This was our 6th annual 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS SALE and let's just say…. you guys clearly love this sale more than ever! So thank you for joining us and we really hope it is like Christmas when you receive and open your box [es]!!
Joanna, Eric and the very tired elves!
ALL PURCHASES TODAY BEFORE NOON WILL RECEIVE OUR PINECONES PATTERN TO HELP YOU DECORATE THE TREE! MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Why are you mucking about with the 12 days of Christmas by claiming they are prior to Christmas? I don’t understand this. You’re a crafter. Crafter’s don’t muck about with holidays, etc. Advent heralds Christmas. The 12 Days of Christmas ends on Epiphany, which is January 6th. Whether the first day of Christmas is the 25th or the 26th, however, is something I’ve yet to figure out. However, Happy Christmas to you.

Hello Jane-
Not sure what your comment is actually trying to say but we are having a sale called the 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS FIG TREE STYLE. Not sure what that has to do with Advent, Epiphany or anything else but Merry Christmas to you as well!
