During Market in Pittsburgh last week, MODA revealed one of their latest projects, the MODERN BUILDING BLOCKS KIT. It is an amazing quilt. Really. Created entirely out of MODA Bella Solids, the quilt is a wonderful assortment of various sizes and colors of blocks that make up an overall quilt that is a feast for the eyes. Since our booth was directly across from the quilt for 4 days, we spent a lot of time staring right at it, dreaming of it in Fig Tree colors!
And so... we came home and recreated the quilt in just that, Fig Tree colors. Trying to keep the original BELLA SOLIDS as much as possible, we replaced some of the fabrics with solid tone on tones and small prints from our upcoming SOMERSET collection. We decided to keep the original ivory background so the quilt will be a bit brighter than our standard cream feel since that is the background that seems to set these fabrics off and make them sparkle! The result is a certainly "figgyfied" color version of MODA's BUILDING BLOCKS KIT but still pretty much the same feel of the original- since that is what we loved about it in the first place!
We are calling it FIG TREE'S MODERN BUILDING BLOCKS BOM! In it you will find 6 BELLA SOLIDS that we kept the same or very close to the original, 7 upcoming SOMERSET fabrics and 2 current Fig Tree favorites. The kit will contain a total of 15 block fabrics plus binding along with the wonderful MODA FAN BOOKLET of patterns for the entire quilt. We will also provide alternate settings for those of you who want to create 2 smaller quilts from these lovelies! Quilt backings will be offered separately closer to the end of the Block-of-the-Month.
For 7 months, each month we will send you a yummy packet of fabric to make sure you have enough to do the blocks for that month [and some more if you get excited]. MODA's pattern "fan" pack will be sent to you in the September shipment or as soon as we receive it [we will still send you pattern directions before the printed pack arrives]. There will be about 48 blocks in the quilt when finished but a few of the smallest blocks will be repeats. Your shipments will begin in August with BELLA SOLIDS and current Fig Tree fabrics and will begin to include our SOMERSET fabrics as soon as it hits shelves in September, 2014.
We are so excited to get started and hope you join us! See our blog for more photos and info!
