Decide ahead of time how long you want your quilt to be, then you can decide if you need sashing between rows or borders around the whole quilt. Taking the time to do the math can save lots of ( deconstruction/ reconstruction)
Oh wow, I didn't even think about this thank you so much this makes me glad we have this message board and glad I am able to ask questions like this to get other options.
