I finally looked through the seeds, and see that I have some new seeds from some of the same plants, but like I said, I hate to waste seeds!

Corn Poppies - an annual, but they are pretty, and tiny seeds
Large orange Poppies - sorry, don't know the name, but they are perennial, and have tiny seeds
Cornflower, which I think is Centaurea dealbata, or something very close. It's a perennial.
Pincushion Flower (Scabiosa)
Hollyhock (Alcea rosea 'Nigra')
Rudbeckia, but I don't know which one
Echinacea, but I don't know which one

Dad has a way of collecting seeds, and then forgetting which plant it came from. So, these will all be surprises if they bloom. Well, other than the Hollyhock. That one is mine, and the seeds are at least 4 years old. I had forgotten I had them.
