Making: Free Bee - August

My Free Bee block for the month of August is finished...and almost mailed!  It's in an envelope, at least.  This block is for Leanne from she can quilt.

She requested a large block (15") with a small focus area of color in an otherwise neutral block.  Preferably, the focus area would reflect the each quilter's personal style.  For my focus, I chose to do a tiny split log cabin block.  For the neutrals, I did lots of strips of off whites and a light khaki.  In reading back over her directions, I now see where she requested a "minimal" approach.  Whoops.  I missed that part.
