Welcome to the Quilting Board!
I think I will add the pocket too! Thanks.
That's what I was thinking -- make a pocket to keep your toes in.
I did something like this, but not a pocket. I sewed tucks into the end of the throw so that it would hook onto my feet and stay there when I want to take a nap. It really works swell. My feet were always cold if the quilt came off them, even with shoes on.

I frequently do QAYG for the complete project. Because I quilt on my domestic sewing machine, I do sometimes attach the borders with QAYG after doing traditional quilting on the main part of the quilt. Just keeping the bulk of the borders away from the project until they are ready to be attached is a great help in maneuvering the sandwich. I am sure it will work fine for you.
Doesn't sound like a difficult fix. Another reason I buy extra fabric. If it calls for a yard, I'll buy 1 1/2-2 yards. Might want to make a pillow. Good luck with your addition. Would love to see finished, please!
Good idea. Often I wish I had bought more fabric after I finish a quilt.
I would do it on the top. you can add a wider section across the top and make it blocks or do applique on it. Should turn out cute.
Can you please post a pic of the finished project? Inquiring eyes want to see. Lol!
Got sick over Christmas! Bah Humbug! Feeling a little better today, but not great. Didn't know one could sneeze constantly for two days. Rudolph has nothing on me! LOL Will try to get a pix for you as soon as my head clears.
I made a rag quilt several yrs ago & it was too short for when I recline in recliner. So... I just added more squares.
