Aurifil DOM on the Design Wall

I wasn't going to do the Aurifil DOM project this year because I didn't want to start another quilt. But once I saw the January block I knew I had to try it. I decided I would just add the 2019 blocks to the Aurifil blocks that I finished last year so I really won't be starting another "new" quilting project... I'm just making last year's project larger! 
The name of January's block is "updated wedding ring block" and designer is Beverly from Flamingo Toes.

For my version of the block, I reversed the light dark placements. 


I adored making the little 4 patch blocks and it made me want to get out my Omigosh project again so I could make more of these little framed 4 patch blocks.
And I made a double stitching line on the corners so I have 16 little HST baby blocks to play with.

It was a fun block to sew, the pattern was well written and the block came together perfectly. Love it when that happens!


I only finished 6 blocks from last year, so here they are on the design wall with my newest addition at the top. I love these fabrics and this colour combination.

Great idea to combine both sets of blocks. I also like your colour combo!

Love your little blocks I have a pattern that is something like the OMG but I don't know if I will make it unless I can figure out dimensions to enlarge the larges these are all finished at 3 inches - I just know me and my sloppy piecing would screw it up! LOL and the book that has the pattern is from Precision Piecing!!

What a great idea to keep from having "another" quilt in your queue. The blocks look great.

Thanks for the giggle this morning. I love how you are extending your last year's project. You are so smart! I love all the blocks.
