I have a mess on my hands and with it have lots of extra 2.5" HST.

I am making a broken dishes quilt in black and white. My squares are 3.5 unfinished and I am using the Debbie Caffey method for HST. I was supposed to get 10 to 14 HST per 10x18 panel but I didn't. As we all have come to learn not all Fat Quarters are 18 squares after prewashing and trimming off the selvage. So from each panel I have 6-8 3.5" HST and 4 or 5 2.5" HST. And I am short almost 100 3.5" HST.

What do I do with all the leftovers. I will have some 3.5" squares leftover that are of the same black and white prints but not a lot. I thought about adding another color to them but what to do.

Anybody have ideas, pics of something, etc? Thanks!!!!
