It looks like a block adds 20 inches, so adding another row of blocks on two sides will make a quilt 122 X 122. That's a pretty big quilt. Would adding a half a block on two sides look dorky? You need to figure how many blocks you want to add, then take the yardage for the throw and figure our how much of that you want to add to yours. It would be less than half if you made half blocks, and a little more than all of it if you added whole blocks. A whole block is an X. That should help you figure out the yardage.
Good luck.
