Hello Fig Tree Friends!
If you are part of our FACEBOOK GROUP, you might already know we started an impromptu SEW ALONG for one of my quilt pattern favorites – MILK & BLOSSOMS.
See below for our schedule:


And if you aren’t part of our FACEBOOK GROUP, you should really join. 🙂 The inspiration and encouragement of this group makes it the best place to be on Facebook. Seriously!
……
With all the deadlines I have going, I wanted to sew along but don’t have the time to make the full MILK & BLOSSOMS quilt this time around. Instead, I am opting for a mini wall hanging…and I thought I’d share that with all of you, too!
NOTE: You will still need to purchase the MILK & BLOSSOMS quilt pattern to create the flower/pitcher block center. The free instructions assist with the cutting and piecing of the scalloped border and finishing (see photos below).
MILK & BLOSSOMS quilt pattern is available via PAPER or DOWNLOADABLE PDF.
……
I went ahead and mocked up a few color choices, and I really need your help deciding which combination to sew becuase I only have time to make one and not all four of them!
Would you leave your vote in the comments below? Or come join us in the group and tell me there? Either way I need some opinions!




……
Happy Sewing,
-Joanna
It’s that time again. Time to think SPRING… even if its not…

Cindy Coleman | 4th Mar 26
I love the blue background. It is such a beautiful shade of blue.
Diane Ruby | 4th Mar 26
I’m excited about the sew along but was debating because my schedule is full. And then the wall hanging pattern makes an appearance— perfect! I like the cream polka dot background the best! Sew fun!
Nicky Amidon | 4th Mar 26
The 2nd one with the blue flower pitcher and the sunny yellow flower head is my favorite! Hope you choose that one!!
Katie W | 4th Mar 26
BLUE PITCHER with RED BORDER is my favorite! It’s mildly 4th of July without being overly so….but is still vibrant and happy 😀
Gayle Weaver | 4th Mar 26
So excited there’s a wall hanging to make! I have to agree with the blue background version. What a beautiful color!
Susan Wymer | 4th Mar 26
Not knowing your decor, my fav is the green one! It’s different especially the flower!
Sandra McDaniel | 4th Mar 26
The blue background one for sure!
Dee | 4th Mar 26
Green background – it’s so fresh for Spring!
Irene Russy | 4th Mar 26
Definitely the one with the blue background!!
Irene Russell | 4th Mar 26
Definitely the one with the blue background!!
Rosamond Crawley | 4th Mar 26
I love the taupe background and would use all shades of the Rosie floral fabric for the milk pails. The blue background one is stunning. But for my home, I like the taupe background!
Amanda Bush | 4th Mar 26
Blue Rosie version! Reminds me of spring!
Stacy Lindblom | 4th Mar 26
I love this idea! I couldn’t decide which color choices I wanted to go with so this way, I can make one of each! 🙂
Cynthia Licciardi | 4th Mar 26
Oh my they are all so beautiful, to chose just one is difficult but, since green is my favorite color, that would be my first choice
Ruthann Lindsay | 4th Mar 26
I think the blue background is beautiful. It lets the pitcher shine.
Angela McIntyre | 4th Mar 26
I love the blue!!!! Feels like spring for sure!!! I need to get busy and join this sewalong!
Sara McClure | 4th Mar 26
I like the blue background, but I think the flower needs to be brighter than the tan. My second favorite is the mockup with the happy yellow flower.
Mary Harrison | 4th Mar 26
I love the blue background. I have my kit and am anxious to get this one started, and more importantly, completed.❤️
Peggy Serpico | 4th Mar 26
I vote for the blue background
Elaine Bonds | 4th Mar 26
I’m loving the blue background. Excited to join you.
Jacquie Withers | 4th Mar 26
I like the blue background the best too but really love all of them!!

I am really like the green background mock-up, but yes, I really love the blue one! So cheery!
Mena | 4th Mar 26
Blue is my favorite!
Sandy | 4th Mar 26
I like the one with the blue pitcher the best. I think it could be used throughout the entire summer season and it reminds me of one that my grandma had in her kitchen!
Nancy Anderson | 4th Mar 26
I love the wall hanging version. I like the blue background, but after seeing your Facebook comment, I think you should make the blue background and white floral pitcher and use the yellow for the flower.
Heather Payne | 4th Mar 26
I love the cream background!
Jewel McLain | 4th Mar 26
My choice is the blue
Karen Sanford | 4th Mar 26
Blue Background is my favorite and the one I’m making. So if you want to be Twinners then go Blue😊💙
The one with the yellow flower is Adorable! Maybe I need a mini of that one. 💛
Cheri Shepardson | 4th Mar 26
I think the blue really ‘pops’. I’m going with that colorway.
Kathryn Zitz | 5th Mar 26
Im loving that you are offering a mini. Beautiful Block!!
Denise West | 5th Mar 26
I love them all but the green really got my attention. It was the greens that first pulled me into Fig Tree and now I’m hooked!
Dolores Roberts | 5th Mar 26
They all are beautiful. Like the blue background the best
Kathryn Reiners | 5th Mar 26
I like the cream or green background blocks the best.
They remind me of Spring.
Beverly | 5th Mar 26
I love all options for this pattern, but the blue has captured my heart…
Diane Wilkinson | 5th Mar 26
I like the green for spring, however the blue gets my vote. I love the floral milk pitcher and the contrasting blue background 💙
Mary | 5th Mar 26
I’m loving the blue background 💙 Actually love them all. I have a kit somewhere and need to pull it out. Thinking it has the ream background. Did I see that we were also getting the tulip flower pattern on the blog?
Linda Briggs | 5th Mar 26
I am in love with the blue one…but the green is a close second. So hard to choose. Starting to really like the dark backgrounds.
Rhoda Schummer | 5th Mar 26
