If I don't want the sashing, I add one more block up and down. For the coverlets, I use my 12" blocks - 3 across/5 down, same goes for the sashing. The coverlet ends up 52x80 and the large quilt is 80x104. That is with the 2-1/2" sash and 4" border. Those are the only two sizes I like to make. My baby quilts are the same size as a coverlet. I like them for on the floor, to go on a youth bed or t win bed.

That's what I do. Edie
I like your math! Do you do different blocks or do you stay with the tried and true? It certainly makes it easier to keep it the same size.
