Kaffe Fassett's quilts in the sun
Photographed against a backdrop of Portugal's fabulous glazed tiles and the unique architecture, this glorious array of new designs are once again from Kaffe and his chosen designers, ably assisted by Pauline Smith and Liza Prior Lucy. This, the latest in Kaffe Fassett's highly successful patchwork and quilting books from Rowan. It offers 20 new designs featuring both new fabrics and firm favourites in the Rowan patchwork range, so that readers are able to find the fabrics and the designs for a stunning array of new quilt designs. Each patchwork quilt design has a recipe, rather like a cookery book - a sumptuous photo of the finished project, an ingredients list and written 'recipe' illustrated with coloured diagrams, a 'flat shot' of each complete quilt and all the templates. As Kaffe points out "We are not about tricky piecing. We are about the joyous use of unexpected complex colour stories. Our quilts are about tradition, newly interpreted for today."
