My inspiration pieces started with the leafy print on the top left. There are many shades of avocado and tinges of blue all outlined in gold. Added to the mix a little fairy frost type turquoise and a couple of batiks, and some polka dots.
My focus block:
The border block:
Last but not least, the small star block:
I'm glad I got to play with avocado!! I can see a totally green quilt in my future too. At this rate, I will need to live to at least 100 to finish all the projects in my mind. LOL. Now if only I could figure out how to take a picture that is straight. Ansel Adams I will never be!
I keep thinking that I am getting caught up, but now think I'm falling further behind *sigh*. Not quite half way through dusty blue. Still have yellow to work on and haven't even begun to really think about rust.

These three blocks are very avocado and I think they are very beautiful.
I agree... you definitely captured avocado! And I loved working with it as much as you did--definitely a green quilt in my future as well. Wonderful blocks!
Tracey your blocks are all beautiful - it shows that you love avocado! The light/white in your focus fabric adds a beautiful depth to your blocks. Lovely.
I love the avocado with the turquoise.
Oh my! I think this is a favorite for me! LOVE the greens and that aqua thrown in there! fabulous!
I've enjoyed all your blocks. But I do like the Avocado Star.. Very nice indeed
