I bought fabric to do another one the RIGHT way. lol now I need to figure out how big to cut it.

I don't need it be much larger than it is now, but am perfectly willing to play if I love an idea that requires wide border(s). I have no specific plans for this quilt, it might go on my sofa, bed, or just be following me around the house... :roll: :lol: :D
