Increasing the width is easy but adding an additional.24 " of length might require some creativity. I was thinking about piano keys or a braid just on the top and bottom. (I think I like the straight piano keys better but am open to outside thoughts)

Has anyone actually done this? Am I crazy? Should I just give up and keep it a throw size? Tyke is 10 now and I'd like it to be something he can take to college in the future ... If he wants.
I like them both, but I think that I prefer the piano keys for the contrasting element. The whole quilt is really pretty!
