To be all blocks that would be 96/8 = 12 blocks wide and 13 blocks long.
Subtracting two blocks for borders: 10 blocks wide and 11 blocks long
Lots of math here! I can almost feel the heat from the wheels turning. <GRIN>

I think I will make it 10 blocks wide and 11 blocks long as you suggest. Today I was finally able to find the fabric I need (not for backing though), even though I had to order from two different places.

Thanks so much to everyone who helped me with this. The orders will be going to a son's house and I can get the cloth when we go back for visas at the end of April.
