This is exactly what I was thinking. I would get completely bored doing the same block over and over. If you want to keep the overall look cohesive, you can use the same color fabric in the same place in each block, just vary the prints. I like to do medallion quilts for the same reason. The sewing isn't quite as repetitive.
