What to do with bonus half square triangles...

I had a bunch of bonus HST's left from my last project. I saw a quilt pattern that had these friendship stars  laid out in a circle. My HSTs are 2 1/2" so I drew up the layout and made up this trial block. It measures 18 1/2". I have enough leftover background to make one more block With dark purple stars. I like this block but I am thinking on how to make a quilt layout that is more interesting. My plan for these blocks will probably be to put them on the back of the Mystery quilt.
I finished the other block. And thought you would like to see the layout drawing.

After handing out candy to the Trick-or-Treaters I finished assembling my mystery blocks.

I needed to sew something.....

This is one of my Mother's UfOs that I brought home with me from my last visit. I decided to finish it for her and now it is all assembled with only the binding to be added.
