LITTLE BOX OF FIGS 2026: BOX 1 REVEAL – PATCHWORK KITES

Hello Fig Tree Friends!

Welcome to the first box of your 2026 subscription! For those of you who are new to our program, we are so glad that you have joined us. And for those of you long timers who join us each and every year, WELCOME BACK!

I think this quarter’s project is going to be a summertime favorite for years to come and a great way to commemorate the slower days of summer.

Be sure to follow along here on the blog, on INSTAGRAM, and our FACEBOOK GROUP as we sew this fun LITTLE BOX OF FIGS 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: PATCHWORK KITES QUILT

Our newest box project, PATCHWORK KITES, is based on 2 CHARM PACKS of ROSIE along with (3) coordinating fabrics, as well as my favorite IVORY EYELET background. This is one of our biggest LITTLE BOX quilts to date, so this box is jam-packed full of fabric! The coordinating fabrics include red gingham, ivory “fireworks”, and a blue floral for the border.

Follow the PATCHWORK KITES pattern provided and use the fabrics as indicated in the pattern. Your subscription gives you all the fabric you will need to make the entire quilt top and some great scraps for our secondary “bonus project” for this box.

In case you aren’t part of our subscription, you can always grab the pattern in our shop – available in PAPER and DOWNLOADABLE PDF.

LITTLE PROJECT: SUMMER PINWHEEL BOWL FILLERS

I couldn’t bring myself to throw some of these scraps out and these sweet little pincushions/bowl fillers were the perfect solution to our “scrap dilemma”. Make (3) like I did or make a bowl full and hand them out as little gifts at your next family picnic. They are a perfect way to add a bit of handmade charm to your summer table.

……

OTHER GOODIES INCLUDED:

  • ROSIE Mini Charm
  • Dritz Screwdriver Set
  • ROSIE-Inspired Tape Measure
  • ROSIE Truck Enamel Pin
  • Summertime ROSIE Sticker Sheet

…and here’s a little video reveal, too!

HAPPY SEWING!

LITTLE BOX OF FIGS SUBSCRIPTION INFO

This is the first box in our 2026-2027 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!

    Are you going to be selling the summer pinwheel bowl fillers pattern in your shop? Would like to make these for gifts for my quilting friends.
