Stickler for Blue Cat Toys

I wasn't sure whether to start a new RSC project for the fifth week of Blue January. Then I remembered a block that I liked that Angela made and displayed in her SoScrappy blog. Plus I could make it using strips out of Molly's playground (a pile of 1.5 inch strips dumped on the floor). This block probably has an official name, but I'm going to call it Cat Toy.

I used a .75 inch grid and realized that it worked up into the size of a Dear Jane block. So I made one using the Dear Jane colors (second row, far left).

Then I checked the Dear Jane book to see if this was a Dear Jane block...and Jane Stickle did have something close in her quilt. So I made that block too and it is M5 or Mother's Point. There is yet another version diagrammed in the book.
