2021 Monthly Colour Challenge - August Block

It's time for the August block for the 2021 Monthly Color Challenge hosted by Jen @ Patterns by Jen.  Don't forget to sign up for the free monthly blocks here.

August's colour is tan.  I used Kona Gold and Scone.  I am fortunate to have a large stash of Kona, so I have been using Kona for all my blocks this year.


The pattern provides instructions on how to make four flying geese blocks at the same time.


As you follow the steps, it doesn't seem like you'll end up with flying geese blocks.


But voilà!  Time to pull out the flying geese Bloc Loc ruler to trim the blocks.  I really need to return this ruler to Dena.  Shhh 🙊...don't tell her I still have it. 😂


I am making the 12-inch blocks, but the patterns have a 6-inch block option if you are adventurous.
