In A COLOURFUL JOURNEY, K. Fassett had nine designers, including himself create over twenty patchwork quilts. The fabrics used in the quilts are from the Kaffe Fassett Fabric Collection. That collection of fabrics is shown in the back of the book so that the reader can locate the name or Id number of the individual patterns.

The quilts in the book are indeed a vivid variety of colors. In looking over the offerings of the quilt artists, I had several favorites. Kaffe Fassett designed quite a few and from his collection I liked Handkerchief Corner Pastel which is an updated handkerchief quilt. Mosaic Columns that has a chintz look and Jubilee Gardens is like a Tiffany lamp with many small pieces. Pete and Paul's quilt by Roberta Horton has a stylish elegance. The Strippy Chevrons quilt by Susan Druding gave me a happy feeling with its cheerful colors as did the quilt made by Sally R. Davis which she called Co-Ordinated Chaos Quilt. The instructions for making the quilts are included in the book. Most of the quilts were photographed at an 1860 house in Hastings, England which gave a nice backdrop to the images.

This book also contains a short article that profiles the friendship between Anna Williams and Katherine Watts. Katherine has even written a book about Anna and her wonderful quilts that have helped to inspire a new interest in quilting

Fassett has produced some wonderful books and I've enjoyed several. My favorite is WELCOME HOME: KAFFE FASSETT because it seems to be the most personal of his books. Other books not to be missed are: GLORIOUS PATCHWORK and PASSIONATE PATCHWORK.

Comment on Kaffe Fassett’s V&A Quilts: 23 Beautiful Patchworks Inspired by the Victoria and Albert Museum by T. Codona

This wonderful, colorful book of quilts is beautiful enough to be a coffee table book. But for the avid quilter, it’s a feast for the eyes! I would give it a 5-star rating if the quiltmaking directions were rotary cutter friendly, but it’s still very simple to read and understand.

I will say in english that it is a good book, not the best bye Kaffe Fasset but ok.

More in swedish…

Bra bok, bra mönster, det är dock lite trist att han avvänder bara sina egna tyger tycker boken Läckra lapptäcken är bättre, använder då tyger från överallt (lite second hand också vad jag förstår) Mönstren däri tilltalar mig mera också

Although I love all of Kaffe Fassett’s books, I think this one is my favorite, although it is hard to choose because they all have different quilts. It has beautiful photographs of the quilts and other projects and the inspirations for them with easy to follow instructions and patterns.
