I finished my doll quilt for the well known flickr swap, and it is in the mail off to my partner...
As I previously mentioned, the pattern for the base block is the Ice Cream & Pie pattern by Anythingbutboring Quilts. This was the pattern that was used in a paper piecing class that I recently took at my LQS and for those of you that have asked, if you call they'll be glad to send it out to you. The instructor used a similar setting for multiple blocks and I just modified it to fit the DQS size constraints.
I think (and am hoping I am right!) that my partner likes blues and greens so I used a scrappy mixture of prints in those colors, with several prints from the Nicey Jane line.
It was a windy day here so it was challenging to get a photo, but William held the quilt on our sidewalk so I could get a photo in the sunlight which always shows the truest colors.
If you haven't been following along on flickr, I suggest you check out the group photo pool for lots of eye candy that will have you oohing and ahing!

Amazing! I'm so glad you put the center block on point. It looks so fresh :)
This is gorgeous!!! You've got a lucky partner. The quilt is so beautifully pieced.
I love the colors and it turned out so nice. You can send it my way if she doesn't like it. ;)
Very cute!
It's just beautiful!
This is lovely! I love that it is set on point like that!
Just lovely!
Love this :-) The striped border and binding do a lot here :-). Great job!
That is a great pattern, and I love the Nicey Jane fabrics with it. Your partner will be so happy with it!!!
