Dominoes Block of the Month #8 | Quilt Sew-Along (2021)

Sew Debbie Shore's August's quilt block reminiscent of falling dominoes – hence the name!

We're close to the reaching the overall length of our quilt-along project! Note that, in addition to cutting the main strips along the width of the fabric, you will need to cut additional 4in (10cm) long strips in each of the colours used. This will make sense in a moment!

I have used 19¾ x 21½in (50 x 55cm) fat quarters to cut my strips; if your fabric is wider, then please cut your fabric to these measurements first.

Unfinished block size: 18½ x 6in (47 x 15.25cm)

UPDATE: As we've had a couple of Half Yard Sewing Club members get in touch about this block, I've decided to create a special one-off video showing how to cut and put together Dominoes. Happy sewing!
