Knockout Neutrals by Pat Wys is a follow-up to her groundbreaking Spotlight on Neutrals published in 2011. Since I love neutral quilts, have a large collection of neutral fabrics, and thoroughly enjoyed her first book, I was delighted to find she has written another book filled with lovely quilts highlighting neutrals. She continues to emphasize the challenge and delight in working with "colors not found on the color wheel", and explains that when color is removed, the visual interest in a quilt relies on value and contrast. The author broadens her horizons in this book by adding other fabrics, such as silk, linen, and wool, and some embellishment with buttons. Especially charming is J'Adore, which combines two pale tone-on-tone prints and a sophisticated taupe silk. Knockout Neutrals will inspire any quilter to explore working with neutrals and other types of fabrics to create unusual quilted treasures!
