Great question, and I am sure this will help a lot of us.

That is very nice of you sew crafty, I wonder if you made one less row each direction, widened the sashing just a touch, made dresdans in all squares instead of blank squares and added boarders???

So 76+30+4= 110 wide Now Do you want the quilt to go over just the top of the pillows or tuck in? I probably would do 80" + 15" + 2" = 97" for under pillows. I probably would add 6" to that # if to go over the pillows and if tucked I would add the additional 15". So tucked would be 80+15+2+15= 112 110x112 this comes out to 110x110 |

You mean like this?
it ends up 88x109 [ATTACH=CONFIG]127873[/ATTACH] |
Yes kinda like that but shorter, same width, it would be88x88 then, you could made up width with a boarder. I like it.
