I wonder has anyone done that? I have it in two colors, which I like. It is a redwork with 9 blocks, triple sashing and nine patch (background of redwork blocks-off white and red fabrics). Not sure what I could add to it to add length and yet fit in. As I say the square just does not appeal to me, but may leave it if too much work. I hope my explanation is ok.
I like the rectangle quilts, that allows more foot of the bed hang over than the square does. but that is the thing about quilting we can make them to please our self .. no quilt police...
