lovely quilt! I recently read of a great solution to the size problem. The quilter made an "under-quilt"; a solid white quilt that fits her bed, using just the unpieced front, back and batting, similar to a whole cloth quilt. She matched the white fabic to the pieced quilt and added quilting to match the quilting on the too small quilt. Then she simply puts the quilt like yours on top and the under-quilt serves basically the same purpose as a dust ruffle and allows her to use any quilt she wants on top.
