Kaffe Fassett: The Power of Pattern

Kaffe on my mind! This is going to be a wordless post except to say this is from the exhibit Kaffe Fassett: The Power of Pattern at London’s Fashion+Textile Museum, which I visited on Nov. 1, 2022 (and never blogged about). We did a lot of other things on that short trip, but this was the main thing… and a little overwhelming! The photos are mostly all “gallery style,” so click to make big & scroll through, if you’d like… the use of color & technique is incredible.















It wasn’t all quilts…

…besides clothing, there was also a lot of needlepoint (the worst lighting in that area, so no photos).


There was a VERY interesting look at the process of producing patterns in different colorways.


Thanks for the indulgence. I know this type of thing isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, but this reformed “Neutral Girl” just can’t get enough color & pattern these days!

  1. Simply stunning! I would have loved to see this exhibit in person. I’m especially drawn to the piece in the middle of the third row; I might have dreams about it tonight!

  2. WOW! (another reformed any-shade-of-beige girl here, too) – the way he sees color and then makes it real is fascinating and inspiring. That room with the pages where he’s working out the colorways …. and that rhino! 😍

  3. Oh, that is right up my alley, Vicki. Thanks so much for sharing this color-and-pattern EXPLOSION. It’s all lighting up my brain in the best possible ways and is the treat I need today. XOXO

  4. Those quilts are amazing and I appreciate so much that you shared them with us! The colors are exquisite and the designs are so intricate – wowza!
