Westminster Patchwork and Quilting Book Number 1… by Kaffe Fassett
Itchy fingers...
I’m a newbie to the glorious colours and patterns by Kaffe Fassett, but immediately upon seeing them I started dreaming of quilts and fun little bags and luminous wildness of all sorts. Which was a bit of a surprise because my sewing machine has been resting in a secure location for years.
This book is an excellent start to more concrete dreaming. Twenty patterns of projects small enough to not kill you with the cost if you have to toss them, and big enough to make making them worthwhile. Bolsters, miniquilts, aprons, cushions, tea cozies, table runners and mats. Even a tote bag. And a kimono!!
The instructions are very clear and easy to follow if you have a bit of seeing experience.
Love it love it love it.… (more)
