In this, the latest in his best-selling series of patchwork and quilting books, Kaffe draws inspiration from the bounty of nature on a Kent farm deep in the English countryside. With his unerring eye, Kaffe picks quirky settings for his quilts, finding beauty not only in the usual lush greenery and the produce, but also in the working environment of the farm, from its old farm machinery, where the rusted hub caps of a tractor pick up the exact color of one of his new fabric colorways, to the stacks of weathered wood that provide the perfect setting for a pale pastel quilt. With the brilliant perspective of his long-standing photographer Debbie Patterson, and aided and abetted by Brandon Mably, his partner and studio manager, Kaffe presents yet another collection of quilts, and images, that both surprise and delight. As always, the quilts have full step-by-step instructions with supporting flat shots of each quilt and the necessary assembly diagrams, making it easy to copy his designs to the last detail. But as Kaffe makes clear in his introduction, his main aim is to whet the appetite of quilters so they, in turn, can create their own exciting and unusual combinations of pattern and color.

I want to spend everyday making quilts. Some days that might mean I sneak in fifteen minutes, and some days are ALL DAY LONG. I'll take whatever I can get. A day with my hands buried in fabric or fiddling with patchwork is a day well spent. I wrote this book for the beginner quilter who has just fallen down a rabbit's hole. I wrote it for the seasoned quilter who needs a little fresh inspiration or a look into other ways of making. I wrote it for the quilter who just wants to look at yummy photos and hear a bit of rambling from a fellow quilt maker. I wrote it for my grandma whose well used hands would pet her quilts and tell me where the fabric came from. I wrote it for us, I wrote it for YOU. Book is soft covered and wire bound. Patterns are all beginner friendly and play with color combinations. Skills that are required are straight line sewing, making flying geese and snowballing. THAT'S ALL! Some of the quilts are quite quick and some may take a bit longer. My favorite part of this book is that it comes with FIVE quilt patterns (no side projects, just quilts!). Smallest pattern is 60x60", largest pattern is 76x96". Patterns included are Mariposa, Lulu Louise, Sassy Granny, Hello Posy and Attic Window. All patterns are illustrated. If you like the look of my usual patterns, the book patterns are just like them. Very easy to understand and read! There are 64 pages in the book. All patterns are fat quarter friendly, except one. I've tucked methods, memories and ramblings within these pages.
