They will end up 1/4 the size and if you lay it out right would create a nice pattern from the green squares. Just a thought!
    That's what I was thinking. I really like your choices but I think I would be stuck right where you are. The D9P is a great way 'fix' problems like this. It's one of my favorite patterns to make and goes together really quick.
