Ask your longarmer how she/he would load a quilt top of that size (the 110" dimension or the 122" dimension) and make your backing seams parallel (same direction) to that edge.

Your King Size
Hi Quilters, what size do YOU make YOUR king size quilts? I’m making a Goodnight Irene by Jenny Doan. I have it 89x104 so I know I need the 89 bigger. I ordered more fabric to enlarge it and will be so glad when this is done. I had already added the border blocks, when oldest daughter informed me she is going to a king, not a queen bed size. 🙄😩 I did Google and King sizes are all over the place. I need to know what YOUR size is. She plans to have it drop over the sides of a deep mattress and use a bed skirt with it. Thanks for any help. Toogie

Yep, i have a king size quilt made with 16 inch blocks on my full size bed now. it hangs over the sides more but the bottom corners don't touch the floor too much to make a tripping hazard for me and that is good. I have 6x7 blocks.
