Most reviews I've read about Kaffe Fassett start, "If you love color you'll love Kaffe Fassett." And, oh, that is so true. What the reviews don't say is it doesn't matter if you love color or shades of beige. When you create a quilt using Kaffe's unique designs or fabrics you will be passionate about Kaffe Fassett.
