Sunday Quilt Inspiration: N E U T R A L S

In the midst of making an all neutrals baby quilt for a friend, I thought I'd share some of my inspiration ideas.  

And to close it all out, the Alex Anderson quilt that started my infatuation with making a neutral quilt.  Doesn't it look difficult? It's not so impossible if you see the 16-patch and the alternating pinwheel patches.  Of course, Alex tossed in a few 9-patches with a large center just to mix it up a bit.  

She may have all three switching out in a definite pattern, but I can't tell for certain.  Regardless, it's a beautiful quilt, and I wonder how long it took to gather enough browns, grays and beiges to make it.
