It was an easy block. and didn't take long to make. Sifting through my scrap bin for suitable fabrics took the longest! I decided on reds because I have not used many reds in any of the blocks to date. That may not have been a good idea since they will not go with any of the blocks I have made so far. But maybe if I do some more red ones in the future, they will be okay. I don't have many light coloured fabrics in my scrap bin, so I used what was handy. The cat prints fabric was right beside my machine from an earlier project and the dark outside fabric was also not from my scrap bin. I had bought that a long time ago. It is a very flimsy cotton and I really don't like it much, but it looks okay in the block. I found a lot more fabric that would be great for this block. I might make another in another colour.

using up scraps is a good thing, even if it results in a scrappy block quilt it uses them up :-)
I like your red, white and black block. The foot prints are great.
I am still collecting fabric so I can have scraps!!!
I really have a fondness for that dark fabric.
Nice block and I love the paw prints, it adds a bit of whimsy to the block.
