I wasn't going to make this quilt because I have so many other projects until I saw this show. I caught the bug! it gorgeous! I just bought everything. Thank you Kimberly and Joanna for such a great show. I have been sewing with Joanna's fabrics since the 90s.
This was such a great show. I just love everything about it! Having sent 2 children to college my advice is that the first month will be rough, but then you go for parents weekend and they come home for fall break and thanksgiving and then all of a sudden it's Christmas and it seems to have gone by way to fast. Buckle up, you got this Kimberly ❤️
There are three designers that I purchase every collection they release - Joanna Figueroa, Sherri and Chelsi and Lori Holt. I love Portofino, reminds me a bit of Hazel and Plum. I love Joanna’s design mind. This new book looks packed. Between this book and Lori’s upcoming book in November; I’ll be busy until the year 2100 😂
Joanna is so engaging! I have loved her fabrics and patterns for years and now I love her, too!
I'm in love with the Coventry pattern! Reminds me of canning time when I was young, but I love the dragonflies too LOL
I'm a mom of 5. The first child to leave home is hard. After that, not nearly as hard. It is good to remember that they are so much more excited to leave home and they miss us less than we miss them.
What a fun chat today! I loved the two of you together. I learned so much. Most importantly.. for years it was maddening that I would get to the bottom of my spray starch and it wouldn’t come out anymore. I could feel there was still more left, but it wouldn’t come out. Where in the heck does it say; turn the nozzle to the red….🤨 Oh the money I have wasted. Thank you!!!!!!
Interesting conversation about empty testers. When my oldest went off to college ( 6 hours away) I was fine, he was ready, responsible and it felt good. When you youngest went to college, I was a basket case. I cried all the way home. Missed him terribly and couldn't wait to go back and see him at the 6 week point. Everyone has such a different reaction. Kimberly we do survive somehow.
This was the best! I love her fabric.and how delightful to "meet" hrt! These shows are so, so good - thankyou!
Kimberly, great show today. Your shirt pulls out the aqua in the quilts!
Great video; thanks, Joanna, for getting up early. So many great things gleaned from this. Lots and lots of inspiration. I’m still working outside of quilting so I can o my dream of being fully immersed.
Love the strawberries
I think the criss cross pattern and/or pillow would be super cute if you made it in an assortment of Christmas greens, Christmas backgrounds and Christmas reds. Then it would look like holly leaves with red berries! 🎄
I absolutely love Joanna Figueroa, she has the cutest personality. Because of your beautiful friendship the show was so fun. Loved loved loved all the gorgeous quilts and of course I what to make them all. It was the perfect example of “do what works best for your brain.” Thank you FQS for all things Fig Tree Quilts. 💚❤️💛
Loved today’s livestream with Joanna. Her fabric is fantastic. She is my kind of sewist. Not precise! Haha. Thank you girls! (…and Jordan). ♥️🌵♥️
Oh my goodness I am new to quilting and this is the first time I have seen Joanna Figueroa's quilts, colors and fabrics and I am in love!!! Gorgeous!
This was great! Fig Tree has been a favorite of mine for many years! I make my flying geese like she does! Thank you so much Kimberly!!!
This was a fun one! I have only been making quilts for a little over a year now so I'm not as familiar with all the different designers but I recently found Joanna's fabrics and I just love them! It was great to get to see her and listen to her story and hear about her process for designing. And the interactions between Kimberly and Joanna were fun too.
Awww best livestream ever!
Figtree is one of my favorites. Y’all are great together. So much fun
We sent our son off The U (University of Utah) #goutes last August. It was hard. We all cried. But he’s in the Marching Utes (tenor sax) and my husband and I went to several football games and did the tailgating thing and made new friends and it was a lot of fun! It made it easier on us for our son to be so far away. Now he’s home for the summer and it’s a little weird having him home again 😂 But we love it! ❤
Joanna had been a staple at our quilt shop here until they closed. She is one amazing creative individual and her fabrics are always beyond beautiful. First came fat quarters. She had wonderful classes.
Sew much fun! Joanna is one of my most favorite designers, and I love everything Fig Tree. Thanks for so much Fig Tree goodness! Can’t wait to start sampler sewing! ❤
Just the best conversation; so much fun and so many lovely quilts! Your personalities bubbled throughout!
Oh, and I love scrappy backgrounds because they add so much interest and depth.
What a great show! Joanna’s quilts are truly amazing and sooooo creative. And I love her fabrics, too. Thanks for having her on.
I love love fig tree fabrics and patterns ♥️ Joanna and Corey Coriander quilt are my favorites! They speak to my heart 💜
I really like the Plumeria quilt pattern.
Thank you so much for featuring my favorite fabric designer of all time. One of my first quilts was made with Joanna's Chestnut Street, and I have used many of her collections ever since..
First Monday Trade Days in Canton. It’s huge and so much fun!
What a fantastic live stream! I fell in love with Fig Tree fabrics way back in the day with Cinnamon Stars and have enjoyed working with Joanna's fabrics and designs ever since. Thanks for sharing Joanna's career journey and current collections. Can't wait to start the Bow Tie SAL.
Love Joanna’s fabrics and love her laughter.
That RED DOT!!! I had no clue!! I couldn't figure out why some of my cans used all the spray and some I couldn't empty. Best kept secret!!
Enjoyed getting to know Joanna!
Thanks Joanna and Kimberly for the wonderful show and tell...best wishes❤❤
Happy Mother day, Kimberly and Mother staff FQS!!! 💐💖
Thanks so much Kimberly and Joanna. I really loved today show. I love Joanna's fabric.
You two are hysterical together. Fun trunk show.
Loved the live stream today .. Joanna was a blast to interview. Love all her collections. Thanks to everyone for this fabulous live stream.
I cried when I left my daughter at college. I realized she left something in the car 5 mins into my ride back and turned around to bring it to her, and found her in her room crying. Broke my heart.
I ALWAYS love your interviews! Thanks so much.
This sampler quilt is beautiful ❤
Great video! Very enjoyable.
Y’all’s laughter is contagious! ❤😂
Loved this video! Have always loved Joanna’s designs and fabric! Thank you!
Joanna is so adorable and the two of you have such an amazing rapport.
Wonderful show today! Love seeing the friendship between Kimberly and Joanna.
Oh I love love fig tree every part of it. Super great vedio. I'll probably watch it again and again. ❤
Absolutely love Fig Tree colors.
Awesome live! Love your camaraderie with Joanna. Thanks for the great inspiration as always ❤
THIS was so FUN ! Thank you for the LOL's !
I missed the 7:00am beginning so I went back to the reply and saw the sampler quilt. I think this is the best sampler pattern I have seen. Wonderful. Now I understand why the big yellow discussion. I am not a yellow fan. I'm just not comfortable with it, but I do understand why she uses it. Thank you so much for this presentation. I really have to get this book
Enjoyed the show... I ran into someone I did not know in my apartment complex who recognized the FATQUARTER SHOP Box in my arms with my mail. She introduced herself as another quilter. Making friends with FATQUARTER SHOP! Anyone else have that happen? lol
Love Joanna and Fig Tree! Anxious to start the strawberry garden sampler. Looking forward to Portofino in January.
This was wonderful!!! Im looking forward to the strawberry garden block of the month! I just lived this livestream. It might be my favorite. 😍
It’s gonna be in the 60’s here would love to meet you Kimberly ❤
Kimberly, did you see the northern lights as you flew in to MKE? They were stunning in Northern Wisconsin.
I didn't know about the red dot on the starch can!
I love this one- green is great.😊I like the scrappy one too.
Great video. I am loving these designer spotlight videos. I am looking forward to the Strawberry Jam BOM, that is a fun and adorable quilt.
You two had me laughing so much. Loved it!😂
Love her fabrics!
As usual….Great show Kimberly….!!!
I did Joanna's version of the Moda Modern Building Block quilt of the month several years ago...and it turned out great! I loved her color/fabric selections and I wish I had gotten this block of the month too...but, I missed out on the information for that...next time!
Wow! that is so cool, I live minutes away from Milwaukee . Welcome to Wisconsin Kimberly! Hope you enjoy your trip
Loved this live stream, one of my favorite!
Fantastic show!!
Fabulous episode! So fun!
really liked the live show Love Joanna's fabric. couldn't hit the like button because I didn't have one.
I like this one. It is soft colors
Great Live today. You both were funny.
What a great video ❤
I just made the Bow tie quilt in Indigo blues ♥️
Thanks!
Thank you very much!
Oh yeah God sure. That argyle quilt would be perfect in a patriotic colorway.
Great video! This felt like you both let your hair down a bit. I am not far from Canton if you all make a trip up.
I love yellow
Round top is near Brenham, TX in and Canton is East Texas near Tyler, Dallas
So, empty nest. When my youngest left home I helped her move all day and as we were saying goodbye in her apartment parking lot, I burst into tears and kept saying, “It’s not your fault.” I didn’t open her bedroom door for a month. My three other kids kept asking why I didn’t cry when they left.
Fun video. I would like to know more about the bow tie sew along. Where do I find that information? Do I need the sampler book for the bow tie pattern?
Hello Carol! You can find the information here bit.ly/4adSpVu Yes, you will need to purchase the Strawberry Garden Quilt Book: bit.ly/3Uu1y6G

Hello SA! Please make sure your quality is set to 1080p. Our videos are clear.
What a shame that Quilt Market used to be so anti-baby/mom, especially because that would be so much of the actual quilting market! Could y'all share a link to the headphones Jordan found for Kimberly? I hate earbuds too!
Hello Karen! Here is a link to the QUEN Bone Conduction Headphones: a.co/d/4ERuFSl
@@FatQuarterShopTX Thanks!
I wish the BOM wasn't sold out.
Not a fan of yellow I love the aquas though
I’m glad Joanna has gone to samplers. I love samplers over any other quilt. I don’t like making the same boring block over and over again, boring.
I love hearing quilters least favorite color. We are all so unique. I love every color except for “blue”. I really dislike it so much. I never purchase it. If some rogue blue ends up in my collection I place it in a pile and give it away. I’ve tried several times sewing with it and it just made me angry. So no blue in my house, wardrobe or quilts.
What an interesting interview. I love Fig Tree fabrics. Gorgeous
