They make the best Dresden Plates you've ever seen. It is my favorite use for them.

I made a King size quilt entirely of charm packs (except for the borders) It was a Disappearing 9 patch.
There are tons of things you can make with them!! The latest thing I saw was a tutorial to make pinwheels from Missouri Star Quilt Company. Easy peasy!! :D

I keep a small stash of 'heavily discounted' ones on hand so that my sewing buddy AKA DGD can sit down beside me and sew blocks together. They are just the right size for her little hands to manage, and she gets to play with colours and prints while I work on my own projects.
