    Well, I definitely feel your pain! Lots of good suggestions here, though. Now, I don't feel so alone with all my mistakes!

    Piece the border. That always looks cool.

    Carpenter's Wheel will use up some. A wide ribbon border for the CW would use more. Check the borders on quilterscache. I might trim the ones for the border down a bit, but not too much.

    Better to have too many than not enough! I would make another quilt in a different pattern, too. Lots of possibilities with large squares.

    Maybe you could sell the extras on this board and use the money to buy something you want. I'm sure a lot of us would enjoy the pre-cut squares. Just post a picture in the Items For Sale or Trade forum and then stand back as the offers come in.

    How about making a pieced back for your quilt? My DH always says the back is another opportunity to make a beautiful quilt.
