LITTLE BOX OF FIGS 2025: BOX #1 REVEAL – SUMMER SPOOLS

Hello my Fig Tree Friends!

Welcome to the first box of your 2025/2026 subscription! Starting off this year’s quarterly subscription is a favorite classic spools block with a little bit of a twist. Easily done with a couple charm packs and perfect for a later redo in scraps, this simple rainbow project is going to be a summer favorite around here… I can feel it already.

Be sure to follow along here on the blog, Instagram, and our Facebook Group [FIG TREE QUILTS FRIENDS] as we sew this LITTLE BOX project together.

If you’d like more information on our LITTLE BOX OF FIGS subscription, please be sure to read all the way to the bottom for some answers to FAQs.

BOX REVEAL: THE SUMMER BOX

……

MAIN PROJECT: SUMMER SPOOLS

Our newest box project, SUMMER SPOOLS, is based on two PORTOFINO charm packs as well as a few of our EYELET BASICS made on a BELLA IVORY background. All fabrics for the quilt top including background, sashing, and borders are provided [binding and backing are offered separately in an optional FINISHING KIT as always]!

In case you aren’t part of our subscription, you can always grab the pattern in our shop HERE.

LITTLE PROJECT: FLAT PROJECT BAG

This has become my all-time favorite scrap and “extras” project and a perfect way to use the leftovers from this quilt. Gather all of those unused charm squares from your SUMMER SPOOLS and join me in making this simple flat project bag. Your box includes the CREAM ZIPPER you will need for this bag. All you will need to provide is some lining/backing fabric and a bit of fleece/batting and binding.

Be sure to visit THIS BLOG POST for step-by-step VIDEOS *and* DIRECTIONS if you are newer to making these project bags. I’ve got lots of great tips!

LITTLE BOX OF FIGS SUBSCRIPTION INFO

This is the first box in our 2025-2026 subscription. We usually offer sign-ups for the following year in late Fall. The best way to stay “in the know” on our LITTLE BOX offerings is to sign up for our newsletter, which you can do HERE.

The program has 4 quarterly boxes [April, July, October, January]. Each box is a thematic ensemble of goodies and we try to include a new and different variety of products each and every time. So that means:

• April = Summer
• July = Autumnal/Halloween
• October = Christmas
• January = Spring

Each quarter, box price differs between the range provided in your sign-up and depends on the items we include. Each quarter has a full main project, a small extra project, plus gifts and notions.

We do try to have a few *extra* LITTLE BOXES available for purchase, as a way of making the boxes available to more people who did not have a chance to get in on the annual subscription sign-up. These are a “first come, first serve” and usually go pretty fast, selling out in a matter of hours.

Some of the items in the box are exclusives and curated specifically for subscribers, but we do always offer the main project as a pattern in the shop so that anyone can join us in making it.

I hope this helps answer a few of your questions on our LITTLE BOX OF FIGS subscription!
