Product Description

Product Description
This the tenth in the series of Kaffe Fassett's highly successful patchwork and quilting books from Rowan, celebrating a decade of great books from one of the foremost colourists of his time. It offers the reader 20 new quilt designs that embrace a strong floral theme. Using Kaffe's new fabrics. Photographed at Great Dixter, the 15th century English manor house home of Christopher Lloyd, the well known pioneering gardener and writer, the intensely coloured borders and topiary are the sumptuous backdrop for the glorious collection of new quilt designs from Kaffe and his chosen designers. In the introduction Kaffe talks about the approach to colour he shares with Christopher Lloyd and his joy in seeing the quilts displayed in such a riot of colour. Kaffe's new printed fabrics, each in six colourways, include Bekah, Brocade Floral and Pinking Flower, which are lush florals and Targets and Jungle Stripe, which are dramatic large scale designs. Spot and Aboriginal Dot are small-scale designs that quilters find particularly useful. Colours range from the rich and sumptuous to delicate pastels. New woven stripes from India come in rich earthy shades and are a welcome addition to the range. To celebrate their arrival, Kaffe has created a second very graphic version of one of his quilt layouts, the first one created in yellow and gold prints. Country Garden Quilts is constructed rather like a cookery book with a sumptuous photograph of the finished project, an ingredients list and written instructions illustrated with coloured diagrams, plus a flat shot' photograph and all the templates needed.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing for Kaffe, 1 Dec 2008
By EMB (Hants) - See all my reviews
I am a real Kaffe Quilt fan, and love pawing over his fabrics and quilt designs. However, I was really disappointed with this book. I have not found that there are many ideas and colour combinations that add to the ideas in his previous quilt books. Quilts in the Sun released last year, I found really inspirational, but Country Garden Quilts just seems to rehash old ideas. I wanted to see how Kaffe used some of his newer fabrics such as Aboriginal Dot, Spot and Daisy but I don't think his new fabrics have been used in new ways. They've just been used in the same colour combinations, such as blue and white, and heavy saturation of red. I think that there is such pressure for the Rowan designers to produce one book a year, that Fassett hasn't had time to experiment and explore as he did in the earlier books. My favourite by far is Passionate Patchwork.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous, 15 Oct 2008
By Mrs. A. Bradburn "AngieB" (Gloucestershire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If you like quilting and you enjoy colour this is the book for you. Each quilt has a colour photo, a detailed list of fabrics used (which are current and easily obtained) and all templates which are either full or half sized. This book is a joy.

4.0 out of 5 stars Quiltmania, 10 Dec 2008
By K. Platt "blackplantlady" (Sheffield, England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This book brings you twenty designs from Rowan for patchwork and quilting from the hands of Kaffe himself and other designers. The designs for the book were all photographed at the late Christopher Lloyd's garden, Dixter in Sussex. Lloyd was known for his bold use of colour in the garden. What hits you in the eye with this book, is the use of colour. The designs are fabulous and use Fassett's materials. The reader and stitcher will have one big problem - that of choosing which design to make first. This really is a first class book with excellent design and anyone making these quilts will have lots of fun.

I just have one niggle- the photographs of the finished quilts are all at the beginning of the book and the instructions for making the quilts are all at the back. I would have preferred them to run side by side, so that you can see the finished result whilst you are making the quilt, without having to flip through the book.

Fantabulous and glorious, masterful Fassett takes simple design and colour and makes it utterly mouthwatering.
