Default upholstery samplers for floor cushions

My neighbor cleaned out her DM's house after her death (well, actually a year later) and gave me a stack of upholstery fabric samplers that the blocks are about 15" square. some are water resistant fabric and others are other upholstery stuff. I plan to use 4 front/4 back and make floor size cushions--thinking now to not put in sides to make them box cushions, but just sew down the sides and stuff. I long arm so have plenty of scrap bat that I could cut up and use to stuff. While I have enough samplers to make box cushions, I'm feeling too cheap to purchase foam cushion forms and too lazy to go to "trouble" of making the sides--do you think that will work or should I just do this right? I do have an upholstery sewing machine so can easily do what's needed.
