Log Cabin Variation or square within a square?

Here is a pic of my completed first row. When I first started this block I had seen a "log Cabin with a twist" so this is what I was trying to achieve...it may have worked better if the central piece was smaller and the block was larger. Oh well, it still achieves some of what I intended. I really like the colours, they are fresh and bright (but not too bright) and juicy. The only fabric that I bought especially is the apple green, tone on tone print. The fabrics were from the FQ's sent and received throughout 2005 and what I had in my stash - mostly leftovers from previous quilts. I also raided my scrapbag for some pieces.

I really like scrappy quilts, so please think about that when you get to work on my rows. I will be including some of the apple green tone on tone fabric for each person to use in the row. I will include close up pics of each block to give a better idea of the colours I used.
