I made 5 squares of scrappy maple leaves...one yellow, green, brown, orange and red...They have light background and I need help on how to put them together and what to sash with or border...I want a table runner...but can't seem to find just the right fabric. I still have plenty of the background fabric but the leaves were made from scrapes.
Thanks for your suggestions...I will try to add a picture in a few minutes.

The red is a darker red, bluer red than the pic portrays
I think I have found a brown tone on tone to use as a background...but would love to hear arrangement ideas and any color background ideas.

The blocks are 8 inches...can't remember is they have been squared up yet. The color is going to get sewed on.
They were paper pieced so I think they are square now.
thanks for the suggestions....keep them coming.
