Think about using (buying?)extra fabrics to make coordinating pillow cases. That way your design colors will continue up the head of the bed.Marjoriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09426062040438565996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7261716703693012571.post-54080634728258784412010-04-15T19:00:57.170-04:002010-04-15T19:00:57.170-04:00Here's a late comment!

If you wanted to make it oblong, I'd put a relatively skinny border on, then put a scrappy line of rectangles on one end, then add another border. But that's just me. That's kind of what I did on this one: <br />http://sewinginthewendycity.blogspot.com/2009/08/strawberry-fields-quilt.htmlWendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00730591689231910637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7261716703693012571.post-78664765701472380572010-04-11T16:07:22.575-04:002010-04-11T16:07:22.575-04:00I love this quilt!

The big size of this quilt I think makes it OK to be square. Great for snuggling, or if you decide to put it on a bed, you can angle it over a solid blanket/bedspread.

But, to make yours oblong, you may need to add extra rows. Hmmm; do you want to add more blocks to this? And it is beautiful, btw. :)Laurel H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14272798031417837665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7261716703693012571.post-87168967334828197792010-04-10T22:59:29.872-04:002010-04-10T22:59:29.872-04:00Oh but that quilt is gorgeous.

I quite liked the fabric you had picked but you really need to see what it looks like against the blocks.
