I am in the process of quilting a rectangular quilt for a grandson who is quite tall. The pattern started out as square-had four twenty-five inch pieced squares. I made six squares and arranged them two across and three down. I made the borders (except the center border) the same size on all four sides. For the center border in the group of borders I made it six inches on the vertical sides and two inches on the top and bottom. Then, I used the vertical border a focal point with a special pattern for the quilting. I used only hints of that pattern for the top and bottom narrow borders. I am quite happy with it. The finished quilt is 84" X 102". His bed is a full size. I am quilting it on my DSM.
