Here is the block I was talking about. It's called "Light and Shadows." Its an old block by Nancy Cabot. Its made using 3" strips.
Cut One Focus square 3 x 3. From Pink cut two 3 x 3 squares and two rectangles 3 x 5 1/2. From green cut two 3 x 3 squares and two 3 x 5 1/2 rectangles. Sew the center four patch. Sew a rectangle to each side of the four patch. Sew a square to each end of the remaining rectangles. Sew one strip to the top and one to the bottom following the picture for the color color placement.

The focus square can be print or a different color solid, and the rest of the squares and rectangles are as listed in complimentary colors to match the focus square. For example the focus square here could be floral as shown or could be dark/hunter green solid. Any color combo works as long as you just use three colors. Enjoy.
