Me again..maybe I can explain myself a bit better using your first image. If you were to turn the center 4 patch so the yellow block is in the place of the peach block you will get 4 rather abstract looking squares in the block.

Now I've totally confused everyone I'm sure

That's what I was thinking too. Make a couple more and put them together and see what you think. I like the colors.

Absolutely you should go with it! I agree with the posters who hva suggested doing a few more blocks and putting them all together. You'll be surprised at the outcome!
