 Love Fassett July 29, 2008
I love looking at Kaffe Fassett books; his quilts are the best! Someday I want to try to make one of his designs, but using fabrics of my choosing. The designer fabrics are spendy.

I hav eevery single one of his book and I like this one the best. ALl his books are fantastic. They are artworks and so European. Glad Kaffe got into the quilting market.
Sun Splashed Abandon April 12, 2008

Few designers have the eye for the daring color and riotous pattern combinations found in Fassett's work, and the sun-splashed glory in these photographs makes for a delicious visual feast. For the more conservative...and even beginning quilter, the patterns are doable in other fabric choices. This is a book to set the creative juices bubbling.
Spectacular Quilts and Gorgeous Photography January 8, 2008
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
This one is the nicest of Kaffe's quilting books yet so far. There are 20 quilt designs for all levels of technical ability and they all use Kaffe's fabrics in spectacular ways.
The photography and printing quality of the book allow this to be one of the most functionally usable quilt books I own. I am again inspired to take up my rotary cutting wheel and start piecing.
The graphics and instructions are clear and well diagrammed. I wouldn't have changed a thing.
 Just Ok January 7, 2008

I have most of Kaffe Fassett's other books and I have to say this one was just ok. His Glorious Patchwork and Passionate Patchwork had much nicer quilts.
