The first thing that came to mind is to find matching picture frames and hang them on the wall in the formation you showed - they'd make a great decoration for your quilting room!
(Being a painter, I might try to 'enhance' them with a bit of fabric paint as well)

Very nice panels. I would build around them with nice patches, squares and other blocks. I love working with panels. Cut them apart and re position among the "other" blocks that you make. Maybe something scrappy.

I then cut them apart and used black for a binding. I made little wall hanging with them. hung them on little black clothes hangers I found at Michael's. I still have some of the blocks that I have't done anything with.

I used to have some of those panels and they were when the liquid embroidery pens were in "vogue". Can't quite remember the name but they used to host parties & sell them in tubes with a thick ballpoint type of nib.
