Exclamation need some ideas

I have 26 "squares" from a panel they measure 61/2 by 8 I'd like to square them up so of course I need to add
but I don't want just strips going around them I'd like something different I'd like to make a full size quilt should I add strips at the bottom to square it to 8" or what I don't want to take away from the panel square but want something different got any ideas my mind is blank at what to do thanks I know someone will come up with something I have faith with the Quilt Board thanks guys

If you'd post some pictures, it'd give us a sense of what you might do.

For example, if they are flowery and soft .... they'd be calling for something totally different than if let's say they were wild animals in a forest.


My first thoughts are .... why change their shape? Work with the rectangles and build from there!

cut them down to 6.5 and use the 1.5" strips somewhere else in the quilt?
