This log cabin bed quilt cannot be larger than 90 x 108, which is the size of the batting I have for it. Currently, the design is 70.5" square. The blocks are actually 12", including the 1/4" seam allowances all around, so finished blocks end up being 11.5". If I add a round of blocks, I've exceeded the 90" width of the batting (it's Hobbs 80/20 black and I don't have anymore of it to piece it to extend). Length is no problem; I'd actually need more length, which is easily fudged by larger borders on top and bottom.
How would you finish out this quilt? I guess I could add a row of log cabin blocks to the top and bottom only, then border it somehow. Suggestions from my fellow expert quilters? (well, I'm no expert, but some of you are!)
On the design wall (which wasn't big enough for the last row, LOL)
