series of patchwork and quilting books, Kaffe draws inspiration from the bounty
of nature on a Kent farm deep in the English countryside. With his unerring
eye, Kaffe picks quirky settings for his quilts, finding beauty not only in the
usual lush greenery and the produce, but also in the working environment of the
farm, from its old farm machinery, where the rusted hub caps of a tractor pick
up the exact color of one of his new fabric colorways, to the stacks of
weathered wood that provide the perfect setting for a pale pastel quilt.
With the brilliant perspective of his
long-standing photographer Debbie Patterson, and aided and abetted by Brandon
Mably, his partner and studio manager, Kaffe presents yet another collection of
quilts, and images, that both surprise and delight.As always, the quilts have full step-by-step
instructions with supporting flat shots of each quilt and the necessary
assembly diagrams, making it easy to copy his designs to the last detail. But as Kaffe makes clear in his
introduction, his main aim is to whet the appetite of quilters so they, in
turn, can create their own exciting and unusual combinations of pattern and
color.
