What to do with fabric squares?

[ILv2Shop]

I have access to a ton of fabric squares. All different kinds of fabrics that range from thick upholstery grade to sheers. They are about 8x6 & 8x7?? I've thought about using the sheer ones for a background in photo frames. I don't quilt and I think that'll be the first suggestion some offer up. I don't really sew either although I got two digital sewing machines for Christmas. Just don't have the room to set them up without having a mess.
Any crafty ideas?

I've been making tea wallets the past couple of weeks. You do have to use the sewing machine, but they're easy to sew (just straight lines) and make great gifts!

This is the first one that I made- my practice version before I got out the expensive fabric.
