Welcome Home Kaffe Fassett Kaffe Fassett 9780982558683 Books Reviews
I am enthralled by all things Kaffe and always have to have his latest book. Somewhere along the line I missed this one. When I saw it, I ordered it without looking closely at the reviews. It is not the usual. I will probably put it in the least accessible part of my Kaffe shelf. It had nice photos but very little for the quilter part of my soul.
Pretty things
This book has beautiful illustration and good story. The more recent books by Kaffe have a greater focus on a much richer collection of quilts and their patterns. I did enjoy the read, however.
Love all of Kaffe Fassetts books. It was his interest in mosaics that started a new artistic career for me.
Another wonderful book by Kaffe. Each one is more beautiful. Such an artist makes me happy with color!
I love anything and everything Kaffe! The book arrived quickly and in great condition. An important addition to my Kaffe Fassett library.
This book features photographs of Kaffe Fassett's
home where he apparently does most of his work.
Beware, this book is not for the exponent of
monochromatic themes. Mr. Fassett lives with his
art and the colors in his house explode from the
pages of WELCOME HOME.
The artist says that "the house is like a constantly
changing set." In fact, his entire home appears to
be a working studio. On page eleven there are
pictures of the same room decorated in two distinct
and different styles, where even the fireplace mantle
has been changed.
From the papered or hand painted walls, to the quilts,
needlepoint rugs, chairs and pillows, the home abounds
in colors, textures and patterns. It's a treat to
just look at the photographs. If you feel so inclined,
the instructions are given for making some of the
quilts, rugs and pillows.
It's interesting to view the home environment of a
successful working artist and to see how different
objects are collected and used as sources of future
inspiration. I particularly enjoyed the pictures of
Mr. Fassett's blue and white pottery collection which
is also a favorite of mine. I also liked seeing his
bookcase, which from the point of view of a book
collector, looked well used and filled with cherished
books.
The section of the book called Museum Tour, shows
various exhibits of Mr. Fassett's work as a textile
artist. These photographs are from his show at the
Minneapolis Institute of Fine Art.
I highly recommend this beautiful book.
