Regarding quilt sizes: always read what the quilt size is before you start. I have a beautiful quilt UFO that I started thinking it was 12 inch blocks like the sample I had seen in a quilt store, though I was making a twin not a lap. I was sewing away and thought something was wrong. Found out the blocks were 16 inches and the twin was the same length as the King. Well, the whole quilt looked awful ! Now I have to take the border off and redo the quilt into two different quilts. This pattern was by a very famous quilter, someone just goofed (IMHO).
