I'm glad Bonnie suggests just making half the number of units for a smaller quilt. Otherwise it would be easy to end up with a lot left over. A 3 x 3 block pattern will work up to around a 60" square for a lap quilt. I think that is what I'll aim for. Which means making more of everything. Another option is a 3 x 4 pattern, which would make the finished quilt around 60 x 87". I prefer rectangular quilts, but not sure I want to make that many more units. Decisions, decisions.
