Jelly Roll Block 4- Check

I've been sewing like a wild woman this afternoon...I checked some things off my to do list...here's Block 4 of the Jelly Roll Sampler Quilt Along. I was really struggling with this block, just couldn't come up with a color combination or color placement...but then Carol came to the rescue...she posted her block and I had an Aha moment...the light bulb went on...thanks so much Carol for the inspiration. It's not my favorite block, but I'm pleased with it.

I need to hop off here...my Orlando Magic are in the NBA playoffs and the game's almost over...they've let it get too close...I have to pay attention and yell loud enough for them to hear me. Have a good evening!

I like it, it's really nice. The brown centers are great and the alternating pinks too. Glad I could give you an Aha moment for this block.

I didn't originally like that block either but once it was done, I really liked how it turned out. Yours is so very different but also looks great.
