Default Antique blocks help

I was asked to put these blocks together, but upon closer inspection, I find that the background fabric blocks were torn without measuring. They are all quite different in size. I hate to return them to my mother-in-law unfinished, but I have no idea how to fix them since I can't trim them to size because the applique was added in such a way that it goes to the same distance from the edges, no matter what size the block. Even if I were to find similar fabric, adding to the smaller blocks would not help. In the attached picture, one cannot see how disparate the block sizes are. I do hope someone can give me suggestions.
