    I think they are great and remind me of Hawaii - never been there, but hope to one day soon.

    i would put a dark blue frame of strips around each block to enlarge it, then cut a solid block of the lightest color to match the new size and alternate them on point. if you then add both colors as borders, it will greatly increase the size. you could end up with a cuddle quilt.

    One person's ugly is another person's beauty. I think it is actually quite nice.

    A good use of your time. I bet you have a perfect fabric to go with them and turn it into a pretty quilt. This will get your creative juices flowing.
