Very nice contrasting colours but errrmmm .... Have you mismatched the pieces ???

Or are you making a new block on purpose ?

I was just playing with colours and did not notice I had mismatched the pieces

I think you've invented a new block, even if you didn't intend to, because it is still perfectly balanced.   :D
I might look as though I'm talking to you, but inside my head I'm sewing.

It's not a new block, just a different arrangement of the colours in the star of Le Moyne block.

That arrangement would be very effective if you made four blocks the same and rotated them to make a symetrical design.
