Dancing Dollies Revisited - missing pattern pieces

Dancing Dollies Revisited
Thank you to Inez from Holland, who discovered that Quiltmania had not included a couple of pattern pieces for the Dollies quilt.  I have made a PDF of the missing pieces and also corrected the size of pattern piece "J" (the 8 pointed star) for this quilt. The PDF is uploaded in the "Tips and Instructions" section in the header bar.  My apologies for this error!

Dancing Dollies Revisited

Detail - Dancing Dollies Revisited
Hexagon flowers, stars and jewel shapes are paper pieced, and then appliqued to the background fabric.
The dollies' dresses are sewn together first, and then appliqued to the background. 
Note:  the head fabric matches the dress fabric, and the arms are arranged in colour pairs - i.e. two matching upper arms and two matching lower arms.

The hexagons are fussy-cut for maximum effect
