Wow -- I'm sure glad I asked before plunging into the quilting. I'll add an additional 3 or 4 inches all around before beginning my quilting. Thanks, Everyone, for your experience-based advice on this. Since this quilt is a reversible king-size, it's worth 'spending' the extra fabric at this stage.
