Gorgeous....Wall hangings would be my first thought , but if you put the two together vertically, you have a 21x42" block and that might make a goot lap or sofa quilt. You could surround with simpler smaller blocks or interesting borders.

Do you need a giant bag to carry a quilt around? They would look great on the outside. A friend told me never, ever, ever put a quilt in a trash bag for transport. No matter how short the trip, or else it could take a trip to the dumpster by mistake.
Love the red & white!

I love your shades of red! They are beautiful. I hope you find something to do with them. (I like the 2 sided tote bag idea.)

They might sell...if you are truly "done" with them.

Either one would look lovely as quilt center pieces. picking up the blocks you have in them, but larger.

There was a two color quilt shown on here recently. It was in reds and white. I think you should continue and do the same. I think it would make a lovely sampler quilt.
Your squares are well done. You should be proud.

I was thinking wallhangings and border them out. They are too gorgeous and too much work involved to abandon

Great job! Sounds like you have been given some great uses for them. I like the three picture idea.
