While hand sewn quilts look absolutely brilliant in gorgeous, bold colors, sometimes the craftsmanship becomes underappreciated when too much distracts the eye. That Patchwork Places's Knockout Neutrals: 12 Showstopping Neutral Quilts is so intriguing because it capitalizes on the layout of the quilt rather than the richness of color.
A dozen beautiful tutorials fill the pages of this delightful read. While these quilt patterns are all exclusively made from neutrals, as the name implies they are still show-stoppers. Finished products made from these instructions allow the viewer's eye to scan peacefully over the entire quilt and admire every cut. No aesthetic is sacrificed in any of these designs. Appliques are emphasized, dominoes are stand-outs, and borders are notably gorgeous. It's all thanks to the soft colors that yield to the overall design. These patterns finally give credit to the careful arrangement of blocks that every quilter spends significant time to plan.
Even if you've never created anything above the size of a mug rug before, Knockout Neutrals: 12 Showstopping Neutral Quilts is still a fantastic find for the beginner. Pat Wys, the author and designer behind these dozen delightful quilts, offers a medley of projects that vary in the skill set needed to complete them. Everyone from the novice to the pro can appreciate this book.
Thanks to Wys's designs you can create a quilt (or more) that can transgress beyond one paint job, room, or house. Knockout Neutrals: 12 Showstopping Neutral Quilts empowers you to make the most of your hard work by quilting a long-lasting cover that goes with virtually any color pallet.
