Strangely long quilt
#11
this reminds me of a monster-sized top that I finished for a customer. She had joined the t-shirts and hired me to quilt it for her. It was HUGE - barely fit on my LA machine, and when I finished it, it completely engulfed my queen-sized bed. HOWEVER - she was thrilled with it. So, I'd say back it, quilt it with a panto (it's amazing how well pantos work on t-shirt quilts) and call it done.

Nicely done, and I agree with sweet that the extra length means you can tuck in the pillows. Sometimes quilts decide how they want to be completed - I made one family reunion quilt that was determined to be longer than I originally anticipated, but my SIL loved the extra length, so she could tuck it under the pillows.

I would call it done as well. But in the future you can make a T shirt quilt using your 14 x 18 block size only change your setting to 5 across and 4 down. It will even out the size and make the quilt just a few inches longer than it is wide.
