Available as a stand alone pattern set...introducing AUTUMN FROLIC BLOCK OF THE MONTH SAMPLER PATTERN SET. As many of you know, each year we create and feature several exclusive block of the month programs for our loyal Fig Tree fans. The programs have become the heart and soul of our business and we absolutely love creating them for you. After each program ends, we get hundreds of requests to make that year's program into a pattern for those that missed it and usually we are just not able to do that for a million different reasons. But once in a while the stars align, I get a little window of time and inspiration and the pattern has the opportunity to come to life. This is one of those times!
AUTUMN FROLIC is my interpretation of a whimsical fairytale woodland autumn. Filled with my special combo of whimsical woodland creatures such as an owl, a fox, mushrooms, acorns and leaves. Combined with classic quilt blocks and some special Fig Tree block inspirations, created just for this project, Autumn Frolic is filled with all of my favorite fall tones and all of my favorite autumn things! It is the perfect size to decorate with. You can throw it on the couch for some snuggling -or- lay it carefully along the foot of your bed or along the bed frame. You can hang it on the wall if you have a large great room or a tall ceiling -or- you can display it on a quilt ladder as a wonderful fall accent.
All blocks are made with my favorite SEW & FLIP method that simplifies all pieces and shapes. Appliqué is limited to the eyes on the owl.
Pattern is 49 pages long and in FULL COLOR!! I hope you enjoy gathering your favorite autumnal fabrics and building this classic Fig Tree sampler with us!
