I would first separate by size and see how many I have in each catagory. If there are a lot more of one, I would make that my main block. The others, if they are smaller, could maybe be made into a fancy border, or even a pieced back.

Thanks everyone. I knew I would get lots of ideas here. I had looked at Quilter's Cache and googled but most of the blocks called for a consistent background. I liked the Basket of Chips block from Quilter's Cache. Hadn't even thought about looking at the quiltville site. Scrappy pinwheels and Jacob's Ladder are good ideas but I've already made those patterns so would like to try something different. I think I will start with Boston1954's idea...separate them into colors/sizes.
Danmar, thanks for the link.....great blocks there.
