  Kaffe Fassett is one of our favorite designers.  In the first  quilt, we cut    8" X 8" blocks of feature fabric.  We chose a variety of prints from Kaffe Fassett and Phillip Jacobs to make up the 25 center blocks. We used 7 fat 1/4 prints, and .6m of brown, mauve and fushia solids as well as 1.25 m of  a red and purple solid.   Additional fabric is required for the backing and binding.
