I hestitated for a long time to start quilting, although it has been on the back of my mind for Kaffe Fassetts Quilts en Provence: 20 Designs from Rowan for Patchwork and Quilting. I needed something that could kickstart my creative outlet, which the more traditional books or designs on quilting could not. I would admire the crafts woe menship but would be depressed when I saw the play of designs and colour. I was simply not able to see beyond these issues due to inexperience in this art. The designs I liked came from Japanese quilters who's books are not available in English like most of the other awesome Japanese sewing books and I was not creative enough to "translate" the old fashioned approach to something more contemporary. When browsing for fabric for my joking other sewing projects I came across Kaffe Fasset Fabrics, which sparkled an immediate love affair. I "investigated" this awesome artist more and came across his books. Now I am madly in love. This book is exactley what I have been looking for. The play between colour, prints and block designs is beautiful. I might not like all the quilts but it is something that gets me started to come up with my own designs and let me understand better the relation between colour and form. I am def. A measure of how good a book like this is is how many projects you make using it. My wife has made 4 quilts using this book. One, my favorite, the Lightning Quilt, gets raves from whoever she shows it to. The pictures are stunning and the real quilts are too. I have a number of Kaffe Fassett quilt books. I truly appreciate his skill as well as his colleagues' skill in creating quilts using bold, colorful fabrics by Rowan and Westminster. Another reviewer noted that she didn't think that the same quilts would turn out as well if they weren't done in Kaffe Fassett fabrics. My feeling is that often the quilt designs featured in this and other Fassett books aren't out of the ordinary I have appreciated learning how to be more adventuresome in the use of fabrics. Terrific book, like all of Kaffe's books. BUT be careful when ordering -I originally ordered from Amazon and the text turns into French out of nowhere.

  • History of Quilting
    History of Quilting When the first settlers came to this country they brought with them their quilting skills. New fabric was hard to come by, so fabric for clothing and for quilts had to be used and reused saving as much as possible from worn clothing. Thus the patchwork quilt was born. Scraps of fabric were cut into geometric patterns that fit together into larger blocks of design. Many of these patterns have been passed through generations, created by the ingenuity of our ancestors and traded within communities. Names for particular patterns sometimes changed as they moved from one part of the country to another, reflecting the environment within which it was named. (i.e. a pattern called the pine tree pattern in Connecticut might be named bear’s path in Ohio). Quilt making is an art form that both individuals, as well as groups of people participated in. From the lore surrounding quilt making we learn that parents passed the skills for quilt making on to their children at a very young age. The children would start with small patches of fabric, and learn to sew the very fine stitches needed for beautiful and elaborate quilts. Historically, quilting has generally been practiced by, and associated with women. This could be because the sewing skills needed to make a quilt have always been an integral part of women’s lives. Learning how to sew was such an important skill for girls to have that it was taught and practiced in the home and at school. Women of all classes participated in this form of expression.

The Refining of a Domestic Art: Surayia Rahman Niaz Zaman and Cathy Stevulak The kantha or, as it is increasingly referred to now, the nakshi kantha, is an important women’s domestic art of Bengal. It is made all over Bangladesh except in the south-eastern Chittagong Hill Tracts region. Layers of old garments such as saris, lungis and dhotis are put together and reconstituted into objects of functional, ritual, or ceremonial use. Borders and motifs are embroidered in variations of the running stitch with coloured thread, traditionally drawn from the borders of old saris. The empty spaces are stitched with white yarn to create an effect of ripples. In most Bengali families, small kanthas made of soft, old cloth, are used to wrap babies. [Figure 1] Husbands or sons who leave home to work on land or water almost always carry with them a kantha made by their mothers or wives.

The quilt is stretched on a frame to make it easier for the women to work on it. Quilting An American Craft BY P HYLLIS M C I NTOSH quilt can warm a bed, decorate a wall, comfort a child in her crib or a AA soldier at war. A quilt also can tell a story, commemorate an event, honor the dead, unite a community, and reflect a culture. Quite a resume for a piece of needlework! And evidence, too, that quilts have captured the hearts and imaginations of Americans unlike any other form of folk art. Quilting has enjoyed a long tradition in the United States and today is more popular than ever. According to a 2003 survey by Quilters Newsletter Magazine, there are more than 21 million American quilters (representing 15 percent of U.S. households), and they spend $2.27 billion a year on their craft. The most dedicated among them are like- ly to have an entire room in their house devoted to quilting and to own more than $8,000 worth of quilting supplies. Their creations range from everyday items such as bed coverings, clothing, and table mats to treasured heirlooms and museum quality works of art. The word quilt itself has come to describe far more than stitched pieces of fabric. Civil rights activist Jesse Jackson used the word to describe American society when he said: “America is not like a blanket––one piece of unbroken cloth, the same color, the same texture, the same size.
