Lesley, I think your enlargement plan sounds great! I need to go measue the top of my mattress and the drop to see how large to make it. Really I need to decide if its for me or for my Dad...darn it, he has a KING bed...maybe this will just be a "couch quilt" afterall :oops:
Mine is a king sized bed too, but I still think around 86in will be fine, as I have a skirt on the bed base, and I don't like a quilt that is so long you almost trip over the bottom corners.

I'm not sure whether your king sized beds are the same as ours. Mine is 5ft (60in) wide, but I think that might equate to your queen size - I know you Americans, everything is bigger over there.
