    2 charm packs plus just a few extra from your stash make a very nice size queen 'tumbling blocks' quilt---MSQ you of course use a white to sash on two sides of the block. i think i added about 6 squares of yellow.

    Don't forget about the Nickel Quilt books, they were specifically for 5 inch squares.

    I made a Falling Charms quilt and it is very easy to do and looks great.

    Check out a pattern by Fons and Porter called crazy eights. It make a medium sized quilt, but with eight packs you would have enough to enlarge it.

    Also D4P. I used charm packs for one only they were oversized measuring 6 inches. Set together with sashing and it is one of my favorite quilts.

    Jenny Doan does a pinwheel block where she sews 2 charms around all 4 sides then she cuts from corner to corner on the diagonal both ways, you end up with 4== 1/2 square triangles
