One thought having trouble expressing PLEASE HELP

How would you express this thought please?

1 Usually a quilt is rectangular,so if you have it horizontally, it might not cover your legs.

2 You need to put it vertically for it to cover your legs because it'll be much longer if you place it vertically.

Thank you
