I like the idea of a wall hangings. Use the squares as the center and add whatever borders you need to make it the size you want. They are just beautiful.

Beautiful Blocks! I would put all 4 together as a center for a quilt and just add borders.

Cushions, wall hangings, table runners - all come to mind.

I like the idea of joining all four and using them as the medallion center of a quilt. Just add borders to extend the size. I would probably put them on point to jazz it up :)

Just my 2 cents.

I just took 2 of my orphan blocks and put borders on them to equal them up in size. I then used them to make a bag to carry supplies to quilting. I get lots of compliments.

They are beautiful! I would showcase them on a tote (2 in front, 2 in back) or the easiest method has been mentioned already - as a centerpiece for a medallion style quilt then keep adding chimneys and cornerstones til you get the size you want. Best of luck with your orphan blocks!! :D :D

They're so very nice, and I agree with the medallion idea!
