Save the larger for a scrappy braid quilt and the smaller for paper piecing! If you are very brave save them for a Postage Stamp or Oh My Gosh quilt. The Postage stamp uses one inch finished squares and The Oh My Gosh uses as small as 1/2 inch!

the quilt looks great.
i agree with you 100%, i hate the waste in quilting patterns these days when the patterns call for precuts like jellyrolls, layer cakes, turnovers, charms.
i was going to make a pattern using charms - they wanted you to buy 2 charm packs and you only need 4 charms out of the 2nd pack.
with the extra you have you could make a pillow or a handbag.
