Thank you! This pattern is called "Icepops", from the book "Denyse Schmidt Quilts". I loved it so much that I copied it exactly, using her colors. It seems to me like she takes her inspiration from the quilters of Gee's Bend.

This took a long time to make because you can't just measure out the rectangles and cut multiples; the rectangles are usually bigger on one end than on the other, so you have to make templates and cut most of the pieces individually. But it's worth it, because you get that effect that fools the eye and makes it so interesting to look at.
