I used some lovely gold starry fabric for the background, and black and white stripes for the letters and I'm quite pleased with it. I put an extra strip on the top, so it can be cut down to size later.
If you can't use it in the quilt, Tonya, I'm happy for it to be on the back or in another quilt, but I had such fun making it I couldn't stop!

Love it! The striped fabric is so cool and I like the little treat on the right of the word!
Love the stripes!
I love the idea of mint humbugs, that was my first thought too, after Scrooge of course.
Oh I never heard of this sweet treat but your block sure is GREAT....strips all going the same way......wowsers.
Happy sewing
Wonderful block. I love it.

Fabulous block! I like that striped fabric!
I don't know what a mint humbug is but I sure like your block! I love the exclamation point treat.
The stripes look great! Were they a challenge to work with?
When I first saw the word "humbug" I thought of them too. Definitely a UK thing! Do you remember the huge triangular ones?
Like the H.
reminds me of beetlejuice
