and no - I am not referring to my puppy... who is a BOLT of lightening.. and a speed demon!!
When I had the fabrics out I just couldn't put them back away - so I made a Yellow and White Lightning streak top - and now... its on to the greens....
I found a little color app on the web and it said purples went well with greens. I agree -that is one of my most favorite combos. I headed down to the trusty stash. I pulled some dark purples.
and here is where I am as of today...
I believe I have enough Green 2 patches to make 90 blocks total. They measure 9 1/2 inches .
I am not sure if I will make one quilt top or two. the Jury is still out on that.
I need to head over and check out what the Rainbow Scrap challenge color will be for January - maybe I will make these blocks for that in 2024. ( edited to add.... I just checked and January is GREEN!!Go me!!! I'm ahead of the game!!!)

Very fun way to match up the colors for this lightening strike! Happy new Year!
What pretty colors together! This is going to be a "striking" quilt. ;)
Fun that you kept going on the challenge with the fabrics you pulled. I just checkedRSC and am happy to report it is green. Good luck finishing the lightning streaks in no time at all...that is what the name suggests!
Oh, I love the green and purple together and hooray for being ahead in the RSC challenge this year. Sounds like you 2024 is off to a great start. :)
Purple and green go well together. Good luck.
Green and purple is one of my favorite color combos too. You definitely got a good jump on this month's RSC color.
You made a great choice on getting the green blocks started early this year. They look great with the purple.
I've always loved quilts with strong diagonal lines and this one is great!!!
That is a really good color combo. Excellent choice!
Gotta love green and purple! My favorite too! The Lightning Strike is a cool design! Looking forward to your QAL!
