I recently ordered a few charm packs that I loved. Now I can't find a pattern that I want to use them in. Any suggestions of where I could find a great pattern? I prefer to do something interesting other than just sewing all of the squares together. Any suggestions will help.

How about a Disappearing 9 Patch? Here is a good tutorial for it:

You could do a Disappearing 9 Patch Quilt, although you would just be sewing blocks together you would then be cutting them apart, rearranging them and sewing them back together to make a whole different look!
EDIT: Yeah what Cathy said! lol

Besides D9P
What I did was I drew a line down the middle of 1/2 of my charm squares (if you cut, it would make rectangles). I then put 2 charm squares together. I sewed 1/4" on either side of the line. Cut. Now you have 2 sets of identical rectangles.
Rotate one 90 degrees. Draw line like before, sew on both sides like before, cut.
2 identical 4 patches. Repeat, put together, make pretty quilt. http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-26874-1.htm
Other pattern. Do the same thing but use the diagonal. Make 2 identical hour glass blocks. Much more point matching on this one :| I'm working on it now so no picture to post.
