After breaking thru my inertia to do a couple months old block, yesterday I managed to make the actual block for the actual week we are in!
The not-green fabric is actually a christmas print. A coyotes & cactus christmas print. I choose the green because it was the most christmas-y colored, reads-as-solid fabric closest to hand that was not reflected in the pile of scraps I was pulling from. I knew it would be busy, but thought it could still be crisp.
The block is a piece of cake. I don't think it took me 30 minutes, working from oddly shaped scraps that I cut down quick & put together. I am not crazy about the dominating green. It is hard to see in this picture, but this is a BIG block & that is A LOT of green). I will make this again in more blended fabrics, for sure.

Interesting Christmas fabric! Somehow I have never thought about coyotes and cactus as Christmas related. I like the polka dots on the green.
