Welcome to my day of the blog hop!!
Knockout Neutrals is a fantasitc new book by Pat Wys from The Silver Thimble Quilt Co.
and see that gorgeous quilt on the front cover, yes I started it!! I couldn't help myself and it was so much fun! At first I thought I didn't have any neutrals but Pat explains all about using neutrals in the book.
Here are the first 8 blocks of Road Trip, I have another 5 cut, ready to sew. They come together so fast! I will be making a smaller version of the quilt as I dont make big quilts, but you never know!! (most of this fabric is from Whimsicals)
here are some more gorgeous projects...
this tablerunner is on my list!!!
so how fantastic are all these projects!! To see more visit Martingale
If you would like to WIN an e-book or a signed copy with Aurifil thread and 15 fat quarters of neutral fabric, please leave a comment, I would love to read about what you think of Knockout Neutrals!!

I like the use of neutrals. Never considered collecting fabrics for a whole quilt, not just as a filler color in a quilt. This book will open a whole new perspective.
