TO CELEBRATE THE 20th ANNIVERSARY of his hugely successful series of patchwork and quilting books, Kaffe has gone back to his American roots. Using the wonderful collection of vintage American quilts in Britain’s American Museum in Bath as his inspiration, he has chosen 18 very different quilts as the basis for 20 new designs in this book, featuring both his latest fabrics and his much-loved classics, mostly from the Kaffe Fassett Collective but also his latest collection of Artisan fabrics.

KAFFE FASSETT’S QUILTS IN AMERICA features the original quilts that inspired him. Interpreted in new ways by Kaffe and his team of designers, the designs demonstrate his vivid and unique color combinations to perfection. Familiar block patterns used in the original quilts, such as Tumbling Blocks, Starbursts, and Log Cabins, take on fresh new meaning in his recreated designs with their vibrant, but subtle, color harmonies.
