Too funny!! I frequently start out doing a wall hanging and end up with a Queen if not King size quilt!!!
Yours, is beautiful, should be very proud! It has great "movement" and flows with great color placement and usage!

I also have been quilting only a short while, and the quilt I just finished took me 3 years to assemble, and only partially quilt. I hope to get back in the mood so I can completely finish quilting it. I originally made it for our Queen sized bed in our camper, and when I laid it on our bed in the camper just as it is, I was thrilled with it. Then my husband said that we're purchasing a new camper, and wouldn't you know, the new camper has a KING SIZED bed. Now I can't even look at my quilt that took me 3 years to get to the point it's at now. I think I will finish it tho, and let a charity have it to auction it off. But I'm not even in the mood anymore. ANYHOW, YOUR quilt is gorgeous--I really like it-A LOT!!!

Why not add wide borders and make it king size -- unless you really don't like it. If you really don't like it -- ask a local quilting group or church group if they would like to finish it and raffle/donate/sell it
Just an idea
