A Garden in Full Bloom: Summer’s End by Fig Tree & Co.

There’s something magical about the final weeks of summer. The flowers are full and abundant, the garden is bursting with color, and everything seems to glow in the warm light of the season. That beautiful moment is captured perfectly in Summer’s End, the newest collection from Joanna Figueroa of Fig Tree & Co.

In this trunk show, Joanna shares the inspiration behind the collection, takes a closer look at the fabrics, and showcases the quilts and projects designed especially for Summer’s End.

A Collection Inspired by the Beauty of Late Summer

Summer’s End draws inspiration from gardens at their peak—overflowing with blooms, lush greenery, and the rich, sun-kissed colors that arrive as summer transitions into autumn. Joanna describes the collection as warm, soft, and vibrant all at once, blending classic Fig Tree charm with a palette inspired by nature’s golden hour. The collection features shades such as clover, sunflower, persimmon, daisy, lilac, and soft neutrals, creating a timeless vintage feel that is unmistakably Fig Tree.

The prints include delicate florals, leafy botanicals, garden-inspired coordinates, and versatile small-scale designs that make mixing and matching effortless. Whether you’re creating a scrappy quilt, a coordinated project, or adding a few favorite prints to your stash, Summer’s End offers endless possibilities.

Don’t Miss the Adorable Cheater Print

One of the standout fabrics in the collection is the Summer’s End Cheater Print. Available in both cream and green colorways, this extra-wide 60” fabric is designed to look like a beautifully pieced patchwork quilt without sewing a single seam.

The cheater print is perfect for:

  • Quilt backs that look like a second quilt
  • Quick throw quilts
  • Pillows and cushions
  • Tote bags and project bags
  • Home décor projects

Because it mimics a scrappy patchwork design, it delivers all the charm of a pieced quilt while saving hours of sewing time. In the video above, Joanna shares several creative ways to use this fabric, making it one of the most versatile pieces in the collection.
