The Kaffe Fassett Collective features fabric designs from Kaffe Fassett, Brandon Mably & Philip Jacobs. The collective launches a vibrant new range in Spring & Fall each year. 

 

Kaffe Fassett is a leading textiles designer & practitioner of contemporary crafts. He has a loyal following of patchworkers, knitters & embroiderers all over the world. A Californian by birth, he moved to the UK in 1964 where through a series of collaborations, he built his name & reputation. Kaffe has written many books on colour & design in craftwork. Known & loved by quiltmakers across the world, he inspires people to work with colour in an instinctive way.

​

For many years Brandon Mably organised the running of Kaffe Fassett's studio, where Kaffe trained him to knit, needlepoint, hook rag rugs, & grout mosaics. An inspiring teacher, he began travelling the world with Kaffe doing workshops. Exotic locales filled his designer's eye with inspiration & an explosion of colour & pattern. Brandon has learnt one thing over the years - that most people have buried in them a sense of colour & design. It is helping his students discover that design sensibility that continues to inspire & motivate his work.

​

Philip Jacobs developed a great passion for painting & for the natural world at an early age. He has been designing fabric and wallpaper for a worldwide market since 1976 & began designing fabrics for dresses, bedding & home furnishings in the early 1980's. He is now designing fabric as part of the Kaffe Fassett Collective & under his own label Snow Leopard Designs. His inspiration is drawn from his vast archive of 18th, 19th & 20th century fabrics, wallpapers, paintings & brocades.
