Author(s): KAFFE FASSETT

Craft

In this, the latest in his best-sellingseries of patchwork and quilting books, Kaffe draws inspiration from the bountyof nature on a Kent farm deep in the English countryside.
 
With his unerringeye, Kaffe picks quirky settings for his quilts, finding beauty not only in theusual lush greenery and the produce, but also in the working environment of thefarm, from its old farm machinery, where the rusted hub caps of a tractor pickup the exact color of one of his new fabric colorways, to the stacks ofweathered wood that provide the perfect setting for a pale pastel quilt.
 
 
 
With the brilliant perspective of hislong-standing photographer Debbie Patterson, and aided and abetted by BrandonMably, his partner and studio manager, Kaffe presents yet another collection ofquilts, and images, that both surprise and delight.
 
As always, the quilts have full step-by-stepinstructions with supporting flat shots of each quilt and the necessaryassembly diagrams, making it easy to copy his designs to the last detail.
 
 
 
But as Kaffe makes clear in hisintroduction, his main aim is to whet the appetite of quilters so they, inturn, can create their own exciting and unusual combinations of pattern andcolor.
