Grrr...
I suck at math. I had the information all sorted out and then BAM...turns out I was wrong in my calculations. I needed 63 blocks and I made 68 blocks. Well, to make things balanced or I should say, to make it so that I didn't have 5 completely wasted blocks, I need to add 4 more blocks to make 72. The quilt is going to be 8 blocks by 9 blocks and the blocks are approximately 7 inches long. It should make a nice, lap-sized quilt. The only issue is that I don't have ANY more of the material. Not a scrap. I didn't want to have to buy a pack of charms for 8 blocks, but that is what I have to do. AND...I have to order from online because no one in my area carries Summer's End by Moda.
Always the drama here...

If you haven't already gone out and bought more fabric....maybe you can use those extra blocks to make a pillow sham or throw pillow or something like that. I keep the scraps and extra blocks (when I have a brain fart and do the same thing you did) for that purpose.
