    At guild we put our name in for the door prize draw if we've "remembered" to bring our name tag. So won the prize last night, it's a panel with "squares" but they measure approx. 10 - 10 ½" inch depending which one I measure. Wonder if anyone can give me a suggestion as to what to make with them. I will cut them apart into blocks, but there's only 8 of them, so makes it a little tricky trying to figure out how to lay them out. Thanks for any suggestions!

    I mentally rearranged them, and found that it didn't look right.
    I'm waiting for your final answer, and want to see what you do with such a lovely bit of quilting.

    wow those are awesome...I don't have a clue though how to use them...they are the type of thing that lives in my sewing room for years because I don't want to cut them up!

    If they are all different, I don't think I would cut them up. I would put on some borders and use it for a table runner or a wall hanging, then do some really nice quilting. It is really pretty!

    I am going to suggest that you cut them apart and use the purple and blue in solid or solid appearing fabrics to set them off and then border with black. It will be lovely

    Congrats on your win. You could alternate them with another type block.
