Applique block for august theme.
 

I like to do monthly applique blocks. What is the theme for August? I know July is usually 4th of July and Sept is usually a school theme. I need ideas for August.......thanks

Sunsets, sailboats, beach chairs, sandpails & shovels, late season bloomers: sunflowers, coneflowers, asters etc.

hot, bright sun

Do you have a fair where you live? Ours is the end of July/beginning of August... Farm animals and carnival rides and food! :-)

I think dog days of summer. Maybe a simple beach scene with sky, sun and sand, with a little umbrella stuck into it.

Guess the question for you is .... what does August mean to you?

It might be any of the above ... or perhaps a family reunion or birthday that is in August? a picnic? or????


For me ........... I'm doing a block with corn cobs!
August to me has always been all about corn on the cob and fresh peaches! :)


As for September ... I'm still debating ... it will NOT be back to school ... or apples! :)

Watermelon is August for me.

In Florida it's beach weather..a his and her bathing suit pops into mind..

I say watermelon for August also.
