I made these 9 1/2 in blocks for another project, intending to put a hand embroidered block in the middle...but I HATE the way that block turned out and I scrapped it...so now I'm left with these blocks...I'd like to use them, but not sure for what...any suggestions?

Do you have more? If so then sew them together. Looks like they will make a neat design on their own.

Nope, all I have is these, and I do not have any more of those fabrics...If I did I would just make more blocks to make it bigger and make it into a quilt.....

You could even put a border around each...then several larger ones around all of them and make a nice Lap quilt.

I don't know what block it is but it looks fairly simple to make. Maybe make some in other colors to use with these to make an organized scrappy.

Find something else that goes with them, set them on point and make table runners. You have enough for 4 two block table runners or 2 three block and 1 two block table runners. Or you could do one table runner and matching place mats.
