Among the designs are Liza Prior Lucy’s Blue Morocco and Spice Mountains; Pauline Smith’s Teapots and Mellow Ninepatch; Brandon Mably’s Carnaby; and Fountains by Ruth Eglinton. Dazzle your senses. Radiant photographs by Debbie Patterson truly capture the saturated gem tones and deeply colourful, striking patterns of Kaffe’s inventive designs. Kaffe’s quilt Paisley Columns features an intricate paisley fabric used to dramatic effect in the broad vertical stripes, and in his Strata quilt, the deep zigzags of colour highlight his energizing design.
