One of my favorite blocks! While you did a great job making sure that the colors carry throughout, I might try a slightly different combination. I found that only using three colors worked better for me. When I get home I can send a picture of one of my blocks if that might help.
Yes, thank you that would.
Here you go....I think the difference is not just that I used three fabrics, but that the darker are used on the HST creating the visual of the diagonal, rather than the square.
Let's try again...
