Kaffe Fassett's Quilts at an English Manor House

American-born, British-based artist best known for his colourful designs in needlepoint, patchwork, knitting, and more is back, and this time, his subject is the ultimate in English culture, Quilts at an English Manor House 

For the newest book in his highly successful patchwork and quilt series, Kaffe Fassett has found inspiration and a perfect setting at Levens Hall manor house and gardens, home to the world’s oldest topiary garden collection. The hall is a work of art itself, and the garden topiary is a favourite tourist destination in England’s Lake District. Both classical and whimsical, the geometric topiaries and beautifully cultivated landscapes around the hall enhance the designs of this new collection of 18 vibrant quilts and cushions.

This incredible book features a range of special components, including: 

• A vast range of quilt designs
• Detailed, step-by-step instructions
• Flat shots of each quilt
• Complete block or quilt assembly diagrams
• In-depth guidance and thorough instructions

 As always, the book includes Fassett’s detailed step-by-step instructions for each quilt, accompanied by the relevant block- or quilt-assembly diagram; a dedicated how-to section offers detailed guidance for sewing and assembling the blocks into finished quilts, plus a section on basic patchwork techniques for less-experienced quilters.
