That is what I was thinking, just make the same thing only on a smaller scale.
Thanks so much for your suggestions. They will work perfectly. Sometimes I just have to step away from what I'm doing and ... thanks to you both ... the answer came! Thanks, again!

I agree with the above quote. If it is possible you can add sashing to make it bigger.
