Uh oh

As this will almost make a hexagon when the pieces are sewn together,
perhaps cut off those parts of the outer black triangles that are beyond
the outer line of a hexagon. The you could go round this hexagon with a
few rows of those fabrics - gold, blue, black, perhaps the three. Then
you could put four setting triangles on four of the sides, to make it
into a square. Then around the outside of that you could put 'cubes'
made from three diamonds (Tumbling Blocks pattern); or blocks made by
repeating the innermost star pattern, made into squares by extra pieces
added.

Once you have it converted into a hexagon or a square, you have many
more options.

Does anyone feel up to another game of what would you do?
This isn't exactly the effect the pattern called for but I found
as I turned it around that I kind of liked the the way this looks:

My problem is, I don't have any idea how to proceed from this point
using the same three colors. Tumbling blocks come to mind, but also
maybe more of the same diamond effects? I'm kind of stumped and this
is the _first_ diamond pattern I've ever done so I'm hesitant to get
too complicated of a pattern going.
The block is rather large, @ 19" square once it's sewn together so
I'm afraid it will look silly I repeat it as it's only going to be
a lap size quilt and there'd only be room for no more than 4 of
these on it.

I'm very open to suggestions as to what you would do next with this.
