We are SO lucky at Aurifil to work with immensely talented designers. Jane Davidson, our October 2014 Designer, sent me a photo of her layout for the Aurifil blocks and I was over the moon! She then proceeded to send me the pattern so we can all use her setting, I do have the BEST friends ever!
Here is how I am auditioning the blocks from the designers. (all posts here)
I decided to go with Navy for the spool. Setting background is cream color to give Natalia a lot of room for quilting designs!
Here is how it looks!! I’m so excited about this layout.
All the blocks waiting their turn to be made into spools.
Do you see that ADORABLE center block in Jane’s quilt? We are even more lucky that she is giving that pattern away for free for a limited time.

Love love love this setting! So unusual!! Finally got caught up on the blocks. Now to finish. Thanks so much!
Very interesting setting.
And congratulations, Christine!
I still need to make December’s block then I will be ready to assemble my quilt.
I am way behind but love this setting. Can’t wait to catch up
Absolutely LOVE the setting~love Jane’s center spool block! But the intro should read BOM, not DOM 🙂 Pat, you have soo turned me into an Aurifil lover! I love the feel of the thread, the look/colors and my machine purrs. No tangles, frays or breaking of thread whilst quilting and/or piecing. Thank you for all you do for us.
Oh I love this! Fantastic setting for a sampler! Can’t wait to make mine! Thank you Jane!!
Where can I find the pattern for ALL the blocks for this 2014 BOM? I found the first one, and the spool…
the spoolblocks are beautiful
