August Color Challenge - Red Orange

Hello "Dog Days of Summer"




If you are new to the 2019 Monthly Color Challenge you can hop over quick to read through the introduction and also see the colors coming up in the months ahead.




This month's flower inspiration is the Marigold. I chose the red orange version for this month. This block is easy peasy, because here in the northern hemisphere we are entering into the hottest days of summer, and we don't need to use our brains when we should be out drinking lemonade while slowly rocking back and forth on the front porch or back deck.





Are you a beginner? For this month's blocks you might find these posts helpful:




For this months block you will need:

Mat
Rotary cutter
Ruler





A great group of bloggers joins us each month. Please make sure to visit each one and see their blocks and read their stories.

*Note* Due to the early release of the block some of the links may not work until August 1st.
Joanne - Quilts By Joanne
Kathy - Penny for my Thoughts
