Kaffe Fasset Twister
 

Years ago, I was fascinated by Kaffe Fasset and began collecting fabric, with no particular design in mind. I made a couple of twister projects, using the smaller template. This was this first time I made a large twister, which starts with 10 inch squares. I bordered the twists with yellow fabric and added a pink flange, which did not quilt as well as I would have liked. The borders were improvised with bright pink and flower. The turquoise outer border was fabric I had fussy cut flowers for other projects. It was nice to see all of the flowers in this design. I pieced together all the leftovers and used them on the backing. The twisters have a windmill look to them, which adding the wildly swirls of the quilting, makes the whole thing look like it can take flight at any moment! I am always surprised at the places our quilting adventures take us. This quilt showed me "Tropical Winds" which is what I am going to call it.

Love al those colors...

What a bright and cheerful quilt. Nice job done!

I did not do FMQ on this quilt. It is huge, I would not attempt anything that big on my DSM. I took it to a LQS called Angel Quilters, in rural Lincoln, CA. I 'twas fortunate that the owner was there when I brought it in and she helped with selection of the pantograph and variegated thread.

What a bright, cheerful quilt. Nice job.

Love the Kaffe Fasset quilt.

I love it! I've been collecting Kaffe for about two years and have several quilts in mind.

Great quilt! I love it--the lighter ones add depth! Super!

Bright and cheery

Adore it. Just love the bright Kaffe Fasset prints. Love your use of color.

That is a wonderful twister quilt. I usually am not too impressed with twister quilts but I think your fabric choices maka a wonderful quilt-it is so cheerful. Great job.

I have been collecting Kaffe Fasset fabrics to use in a quilt one day. Yours turned out beautiful. Love the colors. What size is your quilt?

Love this!
