Discovering New Neutrals
OK ... I admit it ... I have been kind of boring when it comes to neutrals ...
As a Kona Solids girl, I was kinda stuck on White, Snow and Ash ... I would buy them by the bolt and that was the extent of my neutral quilt wardrobe.
Boy was that limiting!
This week I was doing a few scrappy versions of my Connected Squares Quilt Pattern and I didn't really want to do both of them in Kona Ash. I am kinda adverse to too much white on a baby quilt as they are a bit harder to keep clean.
So I went looking in the cupboard and found some Kona Pewter Solid. It was perfect! Putting the quilt's side by side, I am kinda smitten with the depth that you get out of the darker version.
Now I know that it won't work with everything ... but when it comes to rainbows ... I think it was a great choice!
Hope everyone else had an equally productive weekend.
Cheers,
Lisa
