Thanks for all the warm welcomes and advice. I went ahead and stuck to the original pattern just to make sure I understood what to do. I finished it today. (Binding was not as bad as I had stressed about!)
So, now I have a crib-size quilt and am now eager to try again on a larger quilt.
As soon as my camera comes back from the shop, I'll post a picture of my quilt.

Welcome from MI
when you get the quilt finished, measure all sides....then add a few more inches and you will have the amt you need for binding.
great book:
