What would you suggest for a block pattern I could use incorporating two 4patches that are identical? The 4patches will use 2 1/2" candies. The 4patches are not particularly light or dark, just using contrasting prints using medium to dark-medium value in shades.

I got a free pre-cut pack of Boundless charms in an order from Craftsy, which contains two of each print, so I can actually have four 4patches that have the same Boundless fabric, although the other two candies would not be all the same fabric, as I'm drawing from 5" charms and 2 1/2" candies or strips I have on hand already cut. I haven't sewn the 4patches yet, so I can mix up candies with the Boundless charms, or I can sew the 4patches in sets of two, using one Boundless charm, and what I have on hand. And, of course, I could use the 4patches completely separately, not incorporated into one block, or I could mix up the Boundless fabric so it's not sewn matching. But with the pile of fabric I've selected, I can't make a set of 4 identical 4patches. Can't decide what to do...

Thanks for ideas! Any pictures of your suggestions would be appreciated. Here's one 4patch waiting for a decision for it's mates.
