MQG Jay McCarroll Free Spirit Habitat Challenge

I made this block for the Portland Modern Quilt Guild's Jay McCarroll Habitat block challenge. All blocks submitted will become a chairity quilt. I was going for an atomic 50's look (at least trying to!)… an era that makes me think of my utopia-like fantasy neighborhoods where neighbors where neighborly, socialized, had BBQ's, kids rode bikes with playing cards snapped to their spokes with clothes-pins, moms wore aprons and made Jello... or maybe I'm just thinking of the Edward Scissorhand's neighborhood.
