That was sort of a happy accident. Grandma is very short and at first I just had the bottom section. It might have worked and I know she's short but I finally decided it just wasn't long enough. I had two extra panels I had made and I decided to cut one into thirds and stack them on top for added length. I think it made the quilt much more visually interesting.
