(PS If you want some inspiration check out the Doll Quilt Swap photo pool... WOW!! It's all making me feel a little out of my league... VERY inspiring!)
Originally I was planning on this for my DQS10 partner:
(please excuse the terrible night photo!)
with this fabric...
But it just wasn't inspiring me to get started for some reason. So after further stalking this is what I've decided to do instead:
Still with Sweetwater fabric, but added in some solids as well and changed up the design. The first design is way more me - but that's not really the idea of the swap... So I've changed my plan to something which is hopefully right up my partners alley. I have to confess that it hasn't been that easy to stalk my partner this time!! Since plan 1 is me all over, I think I'll make it for myself at a later date instead :)
I think I'm being a little on the ambitious size with all this tiny piecing!! Eeek. (Finished size will be approx 24 inches by 24 inches). But it will be a good challenge. Hopefully my secret partner will love it - that's the main aim!!
Off to get busy sewing...

Both are great designs! I love that sunkissed "rainbow" you have going on. Hugs!
I love both designs - gotta get hopping on my DQS10 project, too.
I love your latest design and it'll look great in those fabrics.
I love that second design! Can't wait to see it all put together.
The second design is just lovely Kat - I forgot to say that in the group pool - I must go back!
I liked the first one too! and I think the really good thing about these swaps is to try something new, even if it is out of your comfort zone a bit ...
I really like your new design! It's so pretty and will look lovely in the fabrics you chose.
