Really love those panels!! You have to do something to keep them all together! What size are they. They would be perfect for decorating in your sewing room if you have wall space to do it. So glad you stopped at that sale!!

How pretty they are...I would do as previously suggested and copy some blocks from the quilts in the pictures or maybe as it is old world, just an assortment of traditional blocks. You could stick with the black/white/cream theme or maybe use a touch of colour on the surrounding blocks. Lovely find...I am sure she would be pleased they went to a suitable home.

I would say the same thing as sak658
or
put one block right in the center of a quilt and piece a quilt inspired by the one "centered" block
which means making ... 6 different quilts or may be 6 different sections of one larger quilt...
