place them next to a light block, like a same size simple square, and alter them. the light will break it up! no worries

Cut in half (across seam), then add half square triangle in light color (you will have light large and two small triangles all together in one block). Good luck

I agree with tessagin and YukonViv, lay them out and see what you have. If you have blue sewn to red, or brown to green, the HSTs will probably show enough. Even though they all seem to be darks, if it is truly scrappy there will likely be enough variation to make them show.

Use them to make up the Chickletts pattern.

I'd love to see a picture of the doll quilt you made of it.

If you have other squares made of lights and darks, then use them in the center of the quilt and use the dark/dark ones all around as a 'border". Or if you have more of the dark/dark blocks, use them as the center of the quilt and light/dark squares all around for the "border". You have alot of great suggestions here to choose from. Any of them would make a lovely quilt. have fun!

I had a similar situation. I found happy fabric and made squares the same size and appliqued them here & there, centering them over where the four corners meet (so it's centered over 4 corners) using multicolored thread in a satin stitch. It looked like it was planned that way. Happy save!

Look at my avatar picture. That quilt uses HSTs that are dk/dk combination. The whole block is just squares and HSTs. (Someone posted a picture of a totally scrappy quilt of this pattern lately. It is called Buggy Wheels. That person used squares where the dk/dk HSTs are in my quilt. It was striking!) The very center of my version is 4 dk. HSTs and at each corner of the "wheel" are also 4 dk. HSTs. You may have just accidentally started a very beautiful quilt.

all is not lost, just lay them next to each other and see how it looks. Everything will be fine.
