A few years ago I won a set of blocks at a quilting retreat. On the way home I stopped and bought some fabric I thought might go with it. Not all of the Blocks are the same size and some are lighter and some are darker.
Anyway, no matter how many times I look at these blocks and I can not figure out what to do them. Any Suggestions would be really helpful. Thanks.... I'll await some suggests and barring that some devine inspiration.

well I won some blocks once too and wasn't sure what to do with them and ended up just doing a sampler quilt. You could place them on point or you could just put them in rows with sashing in between them. Here is a link to this one quilt that I did that is an Underground Railroad sampler http://karensquilting.com/blog/scrap-quilt/ that might give you an idea and here is another one - I won some of the blocks and one was mine and then I designed this around the theme of using those blocks that I won http://karensquilting.com/blog/kansas-prairie/
good luck!

I like to set oddball blocks with black fabric, especially pastels. It seems to give them the strength they need so they aren't so wimpy.
