Something to try: tea-dye the whole thing. I've seen some really pretty quilts that were tea-dyed. It brings all the colors closer together, and makes them look like they came out of the same line.

You can use coffee, too.

Take a few of the fabric scraps left from the blocks you made and try it. See how you like it.

So many wonderful ideas! Need to save them for use "as needed"!
