I knew I could count on all the lovely people here to talk me off my ledge. I am new enough to quilting that I hadn't thought about using the value of the color to make distinctions and contrast. Of course I asked here right before I started searching for other scrap quilts. I found one called "attic stairs" I think, that I really like, it's all scrap all the time and I think perfect for what I have on hand.
I don't have a link to the pattern, but it's pretty straight forward. Here is a link to the pinterest photo I found.
