The proportions are not the same between a 12x18 piece (length is 1.5 times width) and a twin size quilt (length is 1.3 times width), but if you are flexible in your size, it would work, yes. If you use a factor (what you would multiply all the measurements by after subtracting the seam allowance) of 5.5, your quilt would be 66x99 and if you use a factor of 6, it would be 72x108. Both of those would work for a twin bed. Does that make sense to you?
