Kaffe Fassett's Simple Shapes Spectacular Quilts, 23 original quilt designs by Kaffe Fassett with Liza Prior Lucy, 192p, color
World-renowned quilter Kaffe Fassett demonstrates how basic geometric forms - squares, rectangles, triangles, diamonds, circles, and quarter-circles - found in natural and manmade environments inspire his quilt design. He also reveals how we can train our eyes to see this rewarding source of creativity and how we, too, can combine striking fabrics with simple shapes to create our own spectacular quilt designs.
Twentry-three of his magnificent, inventive quilts - ranging from beginner to advanced quilters - are showcased in the book, along with step-by-step instructions for making each quilt.
With full color photography by Debbie Patterson throughout, every project is accompanied by a "flat shot", detailed written instructions, and colored piecing diagrams. |
