Charming Kaffe

  Just pictures of this one now that it is finished.

My birthday treat of  a pack of Kaffe Fasset charm squares with the intention of deliberately making one project using only fabrics from one designer.


Didn't happen.



The little bit of yardage I bought for filler and binding... on the Kaffe shelf.  Not Kaffe.

The details.  Made from 6 inch charm squares.  Machine pieced.  Hand quilted with number 5 perle cotton.  The backing is muslin.  It is about 34 inches square.

  2. This quilt is wonderful, so bright and cheery. I have never bought Kaffe fabric before. Did you cut any of the charm pieces or are they 5" squares? Great quilt!

    1. The quilt is made of 6 inch squares. That was the size of the original charm pack. I don't know why it is bigger than the standard charm but it works for me. I did cut an additional 6 squares from the orange and pink sand dollar fabric.
