For more than two decades, Kaffe Fassett’s sumptuously textured, vibrantly colored designs have thrilled readers and inspired them to pile on color and break the rules.

Divided into five color themes—ranging from soft pastels and leafy gardens to bold circus hues—these stunning designs bear Kaffe’s unmistakable stamp. Every chapter includes projects with varying difficulty, so beginners and experienced quilters alike can replicate the masterpiece quilts inside. Wonderful Book | Customer Rating: | | This book is every bit as good as promised. I am enjoying it very much. | Art Quilts | Customer Rating: | | I like everything this guy designs.. great reference for quilters if they need a little inspiration to get going again. Great color pictures as usual for Kaffe. | FEAST FOR YOUR SENSES | Customer Rating: | | Deliciously rich photographically and in its text. Even a non-quilter would devour all of it's many flavors and tastes... a "cookbook" for fabrics...cook this one up! | Deliciously inspirational & great coffee table book!! | Customer Rating: | Heavenly explosion of colour across every page excites the eyes and gets ones fingers itching!
One of the most inspiring patchwork books I have seen, the quilts zing & colour combinations are fabulous.
If you are new to patchwork and need a step-by-step guide, this book provides it more than generously.
For experienced quilters it serves as an admirable ideas book, as it is brim-full of new ideas in design & layout.
Although Fassett does not stitch the quilts, he collaborates with Liza Prior Lucy very satisfactorily.
The book covers 8 Soft Pastel hued quilts, Bright "Circus" quilts, "Leafy Gardens" (my favorite section) containing 5 quilts, "Antique Stone" very traditional & quite elegant, and "Renaissance" quilts, which contain brocade & velvet combinations and all sorts of rich hues of saturated colour.
All quilts have step-by-step instructions, and actual size templates are included for photocopying at the back of the book.
A fabulous investment! I first borrowed this book from the library nearly 10 years ago, then purchased it 5 years ago, and I am still browsing through it. It is a great coffee table book and my guests are never able to resist it!

I go to it for inspiration for color, pattern and texture for any design or art related or creative endeavor. This book is laden with beautiful pictures, but even more inspiring is the use of the quilts in the interior design aspect. I love this book, and I plan on keeping this book nearby for more ideas! |
