Yikes!!! Not sure. What size do you need? I think a king is 100" x 92"
I figured it out with 3 jelly-rolls and it would come out to be about 75" x 128", so that would not work.
My suggestion is to use 2 jelly-rolls ( it comes out to be approx. 100" x 64"). Trim down the width and then add borders to give you the size you need.
Or you could add 2- 9" strips on the top and the bottom. (see picture below)
Or just add a few more 2 1/2" strips to it after you get it to that size. (You would have to add 9 more strips.)
Anyway, good luck and let me know if you need any more help!

Here's a picture of what it would look like: 100" x 92"
