Default What to do w/ 32 strips?

While searching high and low for a ruler, I found 32 beautiful batik strips. Have no idea what to do with them or what happened to the other eight strips! Lol any ideas that does not include a jelly race quilt?
i am open to anything but that type of quilt. If I have to add a neutral it would probably be a light silver gray batik. But that would be shopping ....trying to use up stash
Thanks so much for your ideas!

I think the quilt done like a present with pink flowers was really cute. It had the strips going in 4 different directions in each quarter of the quilt separated by the " ribbon" and then applique flowers.

This may help you. Today was supposed to be jelly roll day. I worked outside- no quilting in my weeds
There are some cute patterns and one specifically called for 32 strips!

Well, I like to do hexies so I would probably turn them into 1 inch hexies and then form a design.

Did you see this weeks Midnight Quilt Show? It uses strips in a different way. Maybe that would work for you.

If colors are appropriate maybe a rail fence. You could maybe use some of your stash to make a bigger quilt.
