Thanks Cindy. Oh yes, that's right... I forgot I still will have another 4 inches on the top and the side, plus two all around before the borders. Hmmm... I might as well go ahead and finish it with the extra eight squares. It may make it long, like a bed spread, but that's okay too. The two of my grown children that have seen the beginning of it, and called dibs, have tall queen mattresses, so larger will be okay for them too. Just more work for me. I think I'll be using this pattern for another top. I'll make it more controlled. It is easy enough and I like the outcome.
