I'm Not Usually a Lime Person

But my sister had given me some 10" squares a while back, and when I found a block I wanted to try, these are the colors I picked. I had to do it by trial and error, but it came out okay. I think I will try to use similar fabrics for future test blocks, and when I get enough, I can make a lap quilt that will "go together". You know what I mean.

ThT color combination is gorgeous and I really like that block. Good idea for your test blocks so you can end up with a quilt.

I love it! But I love lime. Brilliant idea, I am going to do that myself.

Love the block and fabrics!

That is the perfect contrast fabric to go with that print. Sort of shabby chic.

Great idea on the test blocks and colors. Will make a nice quilt someday.

Like the block and the fabrics you used in it.

For me, I like sampler block quilts to have some common theme - similar colors, or the blocks are made on the same grid.

That is very pretty.
