I've lengthened several--Just made a new row like the other rows in the quilt and sewed it on. I had to buy new fabric for one I did, so we washed it, since the quilt it was going on had been washed. We found a fabric that blended very well with the existing quilt. I'm thinking we put a row at the top and one at the bottom to make things evenly matched.
