The orange and the blue

Colourful Friday  is here again, and today it is orange and blue.

My first thought was the logo at my work place.  The orange and blue shine so beautifully together.

I work under these colours each working day.  Got to be happy with that.

Check out the sign as we walk in the front door of the office.






Little water boy is quite happy in his orange swim seat in the blue water of the pool.
And again in his orange singlet with the blue Australian flag.


Love the brightness of the blues and oranges in Zac's Transformer quilt.







But even more beautiful is the sashiko quilt worked by Susan Briscoe. 















I had thought this would be a much harder combination to work with, but instead it has amazed me to see so much orange and blue working so well together.
Pop over to see Robyn at Daisy Quilts to see what other people have found today.  Such variety !!!

You've done really well with your orange/blue finds Marilyn. The little boy in his orange swim seat is so cute!

Hi Marilyn. Your photos are great examples of the blue and orange combination. I especially like your pool shot! Great signage for your workplace and the quilts are wonderful.

Really great photos Marilyn!
I noticed a lot of signage with Blue and Orange as well.
It must get people's attention.
Cute little fellow in the pool.
Have a great week! xx
