Customer Reviews

Just what I wanted

This book arrived in like new shape. The designs are not too complicated and the instructions easy to follow. Thank you Kaffe for sharing your beautiful quilts.Order it you will love it!

Sun Splashed Abandon

Few designers have the eye for the daring color and riotous pattern combinations found in Fassett's work, and the sun-splashed glory in these photographs makes for a delicious visual feast. For the more conservative...and even beginning quilter, the patterns are doable in other fabric choices. This is a book to set the creative juices bubbling.

Spectacular Quilts and Gorgeous Photography

This one is the nicest of Kaffe's quilting books yet so far. There are 20 quilt designs for all levels of technical ability and they all use Kaffe's fabrics in spectacular ways. The photography and printing quality of the book allow this to be one of the most functionally usable quilt books I own. I am again inspired to take up my rotary cutting wheel and start piecing. The graphics and instructions are clear and well diagrammed. I wouldn't have changed a thing.

kaffe Fassets Quilts in the Sun

This a visually beautiful book even if one was not a quilter,Kaffe has a wonderful sense of colour and it gives one great ideas of blending fabrics together and blending, you can use these ideas with other fabrics. to create the Look.

Ravishing quilts!

This is still another book of gorgeous quilts from Kaffe Fassett and Rowen. Of course, they show them in Fassett's own fabrics, but you can use the designs and templates and make your own entirely original creations.
