Default Oh what shall it be?

I have quite a few of these 5x5 squares that I bought at hancocks of paducah years ago when they had a close out of these. I'm just playing with them. I know I can cut one swatch in four and make HST and do something but I will think upon it. There's about twice as much more that is on the ironing board lol...

Some of those have really gorgeous flowers that I would hate to cut. Maybe a combo of large squares with smaller pieces?

If you used some light or white solids in between, it would look like posies peeking through lattice or a trellis. Great squares!

How many are there? What about Falling Charms? Using a white or very light solid in between would work.

I have seen a pattern using similar squares with a small sashing between them. The squares just appeared to float on a bed of solid color.
