One green tile I did turned out a bit too wonky, due to both how I cut it, and with print choice since I would've liked more green in it, but I think most of them have managed a bit better.

trying to decide on the last few background fabrics |
I cut my solids to 8", put the 5" charms on top of them cut out the pieces around it, then, sewed the solid pieces to the charm with a 1/4"seam allowance before trimming it to a 6.5" block.
I cut my prints to 10", put the framed charms on top of that, cut out the pieces around it, sewed the print pieces to the 6.5" blocks with a 1/4" seam allowance, then trimmed them to 8.5" blocks.
If I do something like this again I will probably use 10" and 12" squares, so I have more leeway, some of the tiles were a wee bit short of 8.5"
I decided to keep the quilt very small, as I can see it's not going to turn out how I had it in my mind. It's a good size for a kid's play mat though I think.
