The very wonderful Fat Quarter Shop has offered not 1 but 2 California Girl Jelly Rolls to giveaway!!! Isn't that awesome of them?!
If you have been reading my blog for a while, you know that I love Joanna Figueroa and Fig Tree Quilts. There is not one of her fabric lines that I didn't love. California Girl is no exception!
The colors are so fresh. I love the soft feminine feel of this line. Don't you?! Can't you see a Granny Squares quilt made with this and some creamy white fabric?! That's what I would make :)
I'm really excited to be able to pick 2 winners (using random number generator)! Leave a comment telling me what you would make with a Jelly Roll of California Girl (a quilt for me, just kidding). I'll announce the winner next Monday 4/23.

I think I would probably make a little girl quilt for my sister who is expecting her first baby. Or maybe a frilly ruffle skirt for my daughter.
Thanks for the giveaway.

I'd make a patchwork tote bag, a bunch of cute coasters & a fun mini quilt or mug rug!
I'd love to make a cheery quilt to go in our guest room!
I would love to make some kind of a summery picnic quilt with this jelly roll. Thanks for the chance.
Thank you for a lovely give away! I would make a quilt - those colours and prints look so wonderful and they would make afdorable quilt!

I have little girls, so a quilt would be perfect -- or dresses with tiers of coordinating ruffles
Oh this is beautiful fabric. I would ignore my UFO's and start a lovely new quilt - not sure what pattern. I usually just go with the flow and see how it ends up-lol. Actually now I'm thinking of a braid quilt with white panels between and maybe some applique ( which I'm trying this year ) Thankyou for the chance to win xx
I've been wanting to make a strip tube quilt like this one for quite some time. I have one jelly roll currently that I'm considering for that type of quilt, but I am having trouble figuring out what solid to pair it with. This jelly roll that you're giving away would work better, I think. Thanks for the chance to win, Erin!
I have been making carity quilts for foster childeren and this would be wonderful fabric for at teen girl. regards lisaursino@msn.com
I would love to make a summertime California Girl quilt for my girls to use when they have "book club" out under the shade tree during the summer months.
It's so pretty! I'd either make a regular patchwork quilt to brighten up our living room, or it might be the kick I needed to finally make a granny square quilt :) Thanks for the giveaway!
I would make a picnic quilt! after all summer is on the way!!
Me Me! Waving my hands in the air frantically! Me Me! Oh Me Me Me! Beautiful!!
I would make a couple of little summer skirts for my girls!!! So pretty!
Have yet to make a Granny Square, you're right, this jelly roll would be perfect.
So pretty and beachy! I would make a new cover for my NOOK, maybe a lap quilt for summer picnics, mug rug....oh the ideas and options are endless. :)
Oh, my goodness...this would be beautiful in granny squares! What a great giveaway!!
I love your idea of a Granny Square quilt, but I see the person that commented before me and you already had that idea, so I would next suggest a quilt for my granddaughter's big girl bed.
Well, I have almost finished my very first quilt in a beginners class. So I would use this to make my second quilt, perhaps for my wee girl. Thank you so much!
A Granny Square is on my list to make. I also have a couple of books with 2 1/2 strip patterns that I would love to try. Thanks for the giveaway.
There is a quilt pattern called "Squadron" that I would like to make. This fabric would give it a real springy feel!
Ah! Love, love, love Fig Tree Quilts. Currently fondling Strawberry Fields. I've been digging the granny square quilts so I think I'd use the jelly roll to begin working on one. :-)
I think you're onto something...a granny squares quilt would be great with these fabrics. Thanks for the chance!
I would make a fab new quilt for my house next year! x
Beautiful Fabric!! I would love to make new cushions for my sofa! Thanks for the chance to win!
Lovely material for sure. If I got a jelly roll of this, I would use a lot of it in my EPP hexagon flowers quilt top I've been working on :)
I think I'd make something for my daughter. Maybe pillows?
I really like your idea of the Granny Square Quilt. I know there is a tutorial out there that utilizes strip piecing!! Thanks for the chance to win!
I would definitely make Camille Roskelley's Jellybean pattern. Wouldn't that be cute!?!
I'd probably make a quilt for my daughter's first child, a girl, due in June. The colours are so pretty.
My granddaughter needs a new quilt and she is a California girl!
I'm a California Girl, as are my daughters. I think I'd make a strip tube quilt, I haven't tried one yet.
The colors of the fabric are lovely. I'd make a quilt, but not sure what at the moment. I did get a pattern the other week that this would be really cute in.
Oh wow, so lovely! Thanks so much! I would love to make a zigzag quilt with the jellyroll.
Lovely fabric! Not sure what I'd make, but it would sure be pretty! Thanks for the giveaway!
I'd love this fabric, never used a jelly roll before! I'd surely make a quilt, have seen some pretty ones!
I'm not sure what I would make....I would have to sit and pet it for a while before i decided
HaHa - the comment above mine is making me laugh out loud! I thought I was the only one who "petted" my fabric! I am in the mood for some type of bag, tote, lunch, overnight, not sure?
A quilt for me!
A quilt for my camper, so when I go camping, I have something nice and snuggly!
A quilt for me .... absolutely love the blue palette in this collection ... I have 3 charm packs ... so other 2 jelly rolls ... and my Quilt is finished!!!!
Thanks for the giveaway ^__^
I would make a log cabin quilt for my couch...
Erin, after seeing your Granny Square quilt, I had decided that I really must make one. So...yeah. This would be perfect! Thank you so much for the opportunity!
I would love to win those! I would make a little quilt for my granddaughter, who IS a California girl!
Maybe a new skirt for my Lilly...or a doll quilt! Lovely fabrics regardless of the project!!!
I would make a beautiful quilt to use in sunny, southern California!!
I was thinking granny squares when i saw the collection.
I would make a baby quilt for my newest niece.
I'd love to make a Hopscotch Quilt- it would look fantastic in these fabrics.
Elizabeth
I would use the fabric to make a Saltwater Taffy quilt for my daughter. What a great palate of colour!
(eliz.i@sympatico.ca)
Oh I love all the Fig Tree fabrics but California Girl is my favorite! I'm thinking a Pineapple type quilt with this collection and my leftovers from other collections would be wonderful!
I think I would make a quilt for my sister in law
While I haven't jumped on the Granny Square bandwagon yet, I think you're right that this collection would make a fantastic one.
Love Fig Tree! I'm currently finishing up a Butterscotch and Roses quilt, but once that's done I would love to get started on one using this collection! I would try to make cute baby quilts for some expecting friends I know, but that's if I can part with it!
Love the idea of a granny square quilt. This is one of the best lines Joanna has come up with I think.
with this pretty fabric and three grand daughters,,,,,,,,,,,someone would be jumping around with something new in hand,,,,,,i would probably make all three something,,,,,,,,,specially when two of them are twins,,,,,,now wouldn't that beeeeee soooooo cute,,,,,tks for the giveaway chance,,,,,
I would make a skirt I saw on Moda Bake Shop that used jelly rolls!
missysaprons@gmail.com
I would make a quilt for our new house we are hoping to buy. It was build in 1933 and the colors from this line would look great with the decor of the house. Now we just need someone to buy our house!
After looking at the granny square quilts, I'm thinking that I might just have to try and make one!
I know EXACTLY what I would make with that delicious fabric. My son and his wife are having their first baby and California Girl is the fabric she has picked for her nursery. Boy, (actually, Girl) would I love to win!
loriginsberg@juno.com
I would make a lap quilt for my oldest granddaughter.
Oh my gosh! What WOULDN'T I make with one of these fabulous jelly rolls?! The possibilities are endless. How cool of the Fat Quarter Shop to give you two to give away!
A pretty lap quilt for a very feminine lady at the nursing home!!
I love Joanna's fabrics! I would make a quilt for my best friend, who loves soft and feminine.
I love this fabric!! So pretty. I would definitely be making a quilt. It's perfect for a lap size :-) Thanks!
Wow what a giveaway! If I won (and I so hope that I do) I probably make a Bento Box quilt as I have wanted to make one of those for a very long time. This would be yummy fabric! Thanks for teh chance to win :)
i would make a quilt thanks for the giveaway
I am also a fan of Joanna Figueroa! Her fabric colors always shouts SPRING. I would definitively be making a lap quilt with this scrumptious jelly roll.
If I would win I would make a romantic summerquilt for myself.
I've had my eye on a jelly roll sampler quilt pattern and this would be a great excuse to work on it! :-) Thanks for the chance to win!

I would make a quilt for my baby girl.
Yes, I'd make a quilt for YOU. But I'd have to use it for 20 - 30 years before giving it up. LOVE THIS FABRIC! Thanks for the chance to win. aschaefer24 at yahoo dot com
I think that using it to make a mile a minute log cabin quilt would be awsome. Then it would be more perfect than my quilts usually are due to the fact that I usually use scraps. Thanks. jessica.breidinger@yahoo.com
I'm so happy I finally finished my taxes! Yea,I get to visit blogs again.
Erin I think I'd make a rail fence quilt. It's been awhile since I made one of those.
What, I can't hoard it? Okay. You had me at granny squares quilt. Or I've got Cluck Cluck Sews Shortcake pattern (I almost said recipe!). That would be cute as well. Decisions, decisions . . . but it would for sure be for my oldest daughter, because she is my California baby.
Thanks for the giveaway!
Oh, I really love that line! I'd make a runner...or a mini quilt...or handbag....who knows! =)
Thank you.
maybe couthouse steps? i love this fig tree line...thanks for a chance
That line is just my sister's taste, I would probably whip her up a wedding quilt!
(Unless we get extra points for making you a quilt... in that case, I would totally make you one. ;))
LOVE this line!!!! The colors are soothing and would make a beautiful 'cross-terrain' quilt from Freshly Pieced. Thank you for the chance!!
I would love this jelly roll to go with the layer cake of California Girl I just bought. I am planning to make a quilt for my mom's new house. thanks for a great giveaway.
Wow! THat sounds really really fun. I would make a quilt for my bed for sure. I would love to do something in those sweet colors and where better to see all those fabrics worked in together than a large king sized quilt. Thanks for the giveaway :)
I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE the Granny Squares you've done!! They "California Girl" would be awesome for some Granny Squares!
I was just thinking of making a quilt for my sister. This would be so perfect for that!
I am just now playing with two charm packs so I would love to make a quilt with a jelly roll. Love the fabric.
I'm thinking of a Granny square too!
Thanks for the chance.
I would love to make a bag and matching accessories to go with it.
what a fantastic giveaway!!! this is great. i would love to make something awesome like a quilt using the jelly filled pattern...wouldn't this fabric look so pretty with that pattern
I can't resist this Jelly roll! I've bought Joanna's book couple of weeks ago and so excited!
I'd sew a quilt :)
Hugs,
Tatyana
OOHHHH! Love California Girl! I'd lean toward a granny square quilt too...sounds beautiful!!!
so many friends/family having babies. i have many baby quilts to make... these would be perfect! finishing up a granny squares one now... but i'd make another!
laura
I would want to make 1600 race quilt. I have always wanted to do this.
I too would do a granny quilt...I have made myself a bunch of blocks and now onto a baby quilt for a friend...this fabric would look awesome :)
Oh lovely! I am acually using some of the green sprouts print in my next Cocorico Bee block ;)
With a jelly roll I would probably add these prints into my Farmer's Wife blocks to make it a little scrappier (than just Strawberry Fields). I know the soft tones in these would blend really well!
I was thinking Granny Square! Just started quilting and really want to make one for my mom. She would love these fabrics. Hope I win!!
Love this fabric line! I think I'd make a quilt or some pillows.
I think I will make a quilt with the fabric. I looooove the colors.

Better leave an email addy too, just in case- idzncolumbine at gmail dot com
A quilt for my daughter who turns 16 in July; great colors and patterns that aren't too "babyish" and something she'd be able to cherish even when she finally goes off to college {{gasp}}
shel704 at aol dot com
I am new to quilting (this past September) and have made many gifts for family! I would love to have a California Girl jelly roll to actually make a quilt for me!! :)
What a difficult question? What to make of such a lovely fabric?!!!!!
A quilt for ME. I have made so many for others, maybe now it is time for me...?......
I would make a quilt for my new greenhouse
i would make a baby quilt for my friend's new baby.
Thanks for the chance
Granny square quilt for sure! I love the colors in this line. Thank you!!
Brilliant Giveaway and yes, it would make a fabulous Granny Quilt. Just the excuse I needed to start making some Granny blocks, so can I win please?
Linda on travjonuk@yahoo.com
A little lap quilt for my mum. She would love it!
i'd love to win one of the california girl JR. thanks to Fat Quarter being generous and you for the chance. I'd love to make a 9 patch quilt with coordinate solids all hand piece and hand quilt
Oh my! I have just left the FQS, so tempted to purchase two of these beautiful jelly rolls, but my fabric money for the month is long gone, so I just left! Then, I open blogger and the first thing I see is your entry! Could this be my lucky day????? Let's try!. I would sew my next 60 degree EPP diamond quilt!. Thanks for the chance!
I, too, love Fig Tree Quilts and Joanna Figueroa. I would use these adorable strips to make some granny squares. I really like these blocks and see lots of possibilities for them.
I would love to make a Granny Squares quilt with these gorgeous fabrics, thanks for the giveaway.
I'm kinda thinkin' I would make Joanna's Jelly Girl quilt with her California Girl Jelly Roll. Too heavy handed? I think it would be pretty!
Ooooh! What a fantastic giveaway. I have a serious girl crush on Joanna--I love everything she does. If I were to win, I'd be hard pressed to choose which project it'll go towards... a Thimble Blossoms Hopscotch quilt, the hexagon quilt I'm making for my daughter that is in all Fig Tree fabrics, etc. I know Joanna has a few jelly roll patterns, too, that'd be great with this.
I would make a quilt for my goddaughter who's just 2 years old. Terrific giveaway.
Well, I'd make a quilt, and your suggestion of a granny squares quilt is perfect! I think I'd coordinate it with pillowcases trimmed in this beautiful fabric. I adore the colors, they just make you feel so wonderful and peaceful. Be especially blessed, Kathy
I just finished two big projects for others, so right now I'm looking at smaller projects to make. I'm going to focus on tote bags, ipad covers, kindle covers. Maybe some right small wall hangings.
gifts (baby quilts and purses) seem to be what I've done lots of lately, so I'm sure I could easily create some colorful gifts with this fabric.
I adore Fig Tree quilts and have been wanting California girl for a while. I would probably make Julie's (Jaybird Quilts) snuggler quilt and a few matching pillows
I would do almost any simplified 8" to 12" square with a white background to set off the beautiful feminine softness of the fabric. I just LOVE it. Thanks for the giveaway.
jeannie(underscore)h(at)ameritech(dot)net
Aaak! I love the new line California Girl! So cool that you get to give two Jelly Rolls away! I would totally make a quilt for me with it. I don't have any quilts for myself yet. Fig Tree makes the softest fabric colors. Thanks so much for the chance!
Wow, I would doa baby quilt for my baby coming in june...
Ohhhh, I see a baby quilt!! How pretty is that fabric! My niece is due in a few months and this would be perfect! Thanks for the chance!
I would make a quilt for my little girl who is getting to be not so little!
I too could see a great granny square quilt made with this great jelly roll, however I think I personally would make striped tote bags and mug rug/placemat sets with it if I'm lucky enough to be the new owner of one.
Hugs
Naomi
I would totally flip out if I won this! I would definately make something for me. I'm not even going to pretend it would be for someone else.
I would make a beautiful summer quilt for my bed!
Not sure which pattern I would use but this fabric would be perfect for my Granddaughter who is due May 28...so sweet and girly
I think it would have to be a quilt or a tote...to hard to decide!
cwhelan at williamwoods dot edu
Hmmmm, I think you are right. A granny square quilt would look beautiful. I could always use another one of those : )
"Sew" Sweet!!! I love this fabric! I would make a ruffle bag or picnic quilt for us to enjoy this summer! Thank you for this opportunity. I absolutely LOVE your blog and all your great quilt tutorials! Thank you!
Perfect! I just finished a novel titled, "A California Girl," so I'd make a quilt that I could curl up in and not write for weeks and weeks.
I agree a granny square quilt would be awesome.
I quilt for my mom, it's her turn! California Girl would be perfect for her!
I would make a "Hopscotch" quilt (Thimbleblossoms pattern by Camille Roskelley) with a jelly roll of California Girl!
For sure it would be a quilt!
I think it would make a wonderful girly girl quilt for one of my nieces :) With just enough scrappy goodness left over for a mug rug for me!
The colors are yummy. I would make a postage stamp quilt because the colors would blend so beautifully together to make it soft looking. Would love to be selected to get these. Ellen
what a beautiful range of fabric! I owuld make a quilt for the summer :-)
I have to agree, I don't think there has been any of her fabrics that I haven't loved!
What would I make....maybe a sampler block quilt for my oldest girl.
I have never bought a jelly roll but I have a couple of patterns that would be perfect for one. I've been on a grandbaby quilt making frenzy lately so that's probably what I would make. I think all of my friends are having their first grandbabies! Thanks for the chance to win.
I think I'd make a baby quilt.
I LOVE this fabric, every piece of it! I'm not sure what quilt pattern I would make, but I will find something to make and have a lot of fun with it if I win!
I really have been wanting to make a granny squares quilt from jelly rolls (even before you suggested it! Honest!). I think I'd have to sit there and stare at the fabric for awhile first though ! Thanks for the giveaway.
Definitely would make a postage stamp quilt with this fabaric. I too am a fan of all of Joanna's collections.
Oh this is my favorite line out right now. I've been hoarding what I have of it and wanting more to make a quilt out of just it. Usually I mix up fabrics from different lines but I really want to make one with just these fabrics. I was thinking of a granny squares quilt too! Wouldn't it be beautiful!! Thanks for your lovely blog and the chance to win such awesome fabrics!
Love the colors and pattern of the fabric. A Granny Square would be beautiful in this fabric. Wonder what a Log Cabin quilt would look like in this fabric. Would love to find out.
Love this fabric ! I'm a New Englander with the heart of a California girl ! I've been wanting to make a granny square and this would be perfect !

Granny squares sound good to me! I've been wanting to get started on some of those and this would be the perfect fabric to do that with! Thanks for the chance to win!
I would love the chance to get my hands on some fabric like that because I want to learn how to sew and in particular make quilts so bad. I am just getting my own sewing machine and will be taking advantage of all the tips on your blog very soon! I think my first project should be a blanket for myself:)
I think I'd make a bag and a cushion cover.
I'm making 8 quilts for a teen mother's support group, and I'd love a jelly roll to make a Split Decision quilt or a Strip Tube quilt.
I have 2 baby girls that I would love to make matching aprons for...what is left I could make them play mitts!!
I totally see a granny square quilt. Love the fabric.
Thanks for the giveaway

Lisa L
I have 2 books I want to sew my way through - Scrap Basket Surprises and Scrap Basket Sensations, both by Kim Brackett - I love every single pattern, they all sue 2.5 inch strips, so a jelly roll would be perfect!
wow! i love this fabric line, the title alone, "california girl" makes you think of the slow, lazy days of summer in sandy tans, coral, fading buttery yellow sunsets, blue waters and floating green sea weed. please count me in this draw. thank you!
I love that California Girl fabric. It is so fresh and the colors are great! I'd make a family quilt to snuggle under during TV night! Thank you for the chance!
This fabric is so precious! I've had my eye on it for awhile. I'd probably make a couple quilts from the "Two from One Jelly Roll Quilts" book. They have such great patterns. Thanks for the chance to win!
I'm addicted to fabric and am a newbie at quilting! I'd use the Jelly Roll to make a mini quilt for my new craft room. Its my girly pink craft space, so the soft patterns and pinks would be perfect!! Thanks for the opportunity!
Such cute fabric. I think I would make a quilt using your honey bee pattern! Love it!
TWO Jelly Rolls?!?!?! How cool is that?!?!? I would make something for my granddaughter - she would LOVE this fabric!!! Thanks for the opportunity to win such a great giveaway!!! :)

Oh, this fabric is gorgeous! I'd probably make a quilt for my daughter.
I've never used a jelly roll before - this would be a great one to start with. Definitely a quilt - I think my oldest daughter would want the one made from these fabrics.
I love the fabric, I would make a beautiful quilt out of it.
Thanks for the giveaway!
I think that would make an awesome strip quilt, with lots of white thrown in! It's such a pretty collection!
I've never made a strip quilt before and I pinned this (http://www.thebusybean.com/2011/05/fast-and-furious-for-mothers-day/) to my pinterest board some time ago because I thought it would be a quick and easy quilt. I also like that it doesn't require a lot of cutting (my least favorite part of quilting). Thanks for the opportunity.
I'd make a table runner. I've been eyeing up this fabric, I think it would be perfect in my house - hint, hint!!
I haven't ever worked with a jelly roll but I think a log cabin quilt for my daughters room would be beautiful in the colors! What a fun giveaway!
Such a pretty line of fabric. I would love a new table runner and there is probably enough for a bag too. Thank you for the chance to win some fun sun shine!
I'd make a quilt for my sewing room...I need a figgy quilt in my life.
I would make a quilt for myself. I've always made quilts as gifts for my mom and other family members...but I would make a soft pretty quilt to enjoy!
