ok I'm freaking out here.... way too big!

I have a book, "Patchwork Minus Mathwork" by Linda Causee that has a chart for quilt sizes. A twin size quilt with an 18" drop is 75" x 103". I wouldn't worry about it. I have noticed that all the newer mattresses have more depth than the older ones do.

I made sure all my blocks were 10.5" so it must be the border.

It will tuck under his pillow. Big is better than too short. A small amount will shrink up with the quilting. And depending on the batting you used, it may shrink a little. Don't fret. My great neice's was 98 x 98. She loved it.
Done is best.
