In my experience in using this book, I have never been unhappy with anything that I have quilted. But the this book takes the cake in being disgraceful. I'm talking about the big bang quilt on page 49. None of the directions are checked. The list of what you have to buy to make one of these is wrong and the author has you cutting pieces that you don't need or use in the quilt. I have never been so involved in a quilt before but now that I know that one set of direction is faulty. I should have known. Buyer beware. Quilter beware. I'm usually a great fan of Fasserr's fabric and patterns but this time I'm very disappointed in him.

Although I love all of Kaffe Fassett's books, I think this one is my favorite, although it is hard to choose because they all have different quilts. It has beautiful photographs of the quilts and other projects and the inspirations for them with easy to follow instructions and patterns.

Sorry about the title, but that is what my husband calls my Kaffe Fassett's books. These are wonderful to look at and I have attempted to make one or two. The difficulty is usually the immense number of fabrics to coordinate. I have tons of his fabric, but it is intimidating. I love these books, though, and look through them for inspiration all of the time.

I will say in english that it is a good book, not the best bye Kaffe Fasset but ok.
More in swedish...

Bra bok, bra mönster, det är dock lite trist att han avvänder bara sina egna tyger tycker boken Läckra lapptäcken är bättre, använder då tyger från överallt (lite second hand också vad jag förstår) Mönstren däri tilltalar mig mera också

If you like Kaffe Fassett fabrics and quilts you will want to add this to your collection. There are some very unique quilts and ideas in it.
