I'm making a wedding quilt for my DGS and his new bride. They picked this quilt pattern but want their quilt to be lighter in color so I'm making the quilt with lighter batiks in the middle and the darker batiks on the outer points of the stars. The next layers will be lighter triangles and squares. After that, I'll do the dark points and outer border to square it all up just like the picture shows. The pattern is An Unusual Lone Star by Karen Stone and will be 62" x 62".

So that's the problem. I need to add to the pattern to make a quilt large enough for a queen bed. Do any of you have any suggestions about how you might do that?

I have all the 128 blocks done for the lone star and have lined things up on the kitchen floor. The second picture is how the lone star will look.

Thanks for looking. Thanks for your suggestions.
