I lean towards a tad larger lap size. I too like to wrap up in something while watching TV, during a nap, and won't most likely make anything bigger than a twin size. It's easy in the winter to throw that over the top of blankets for that "weight" comfort and extra warmth. Besides, I have no desire to make a queen sized on for our bed............I wouldn't be able to tussle it around on the machine! Baby quilts are another fave, and table runners, mug rugs. First non-cuddle goody I made was the chicken pin cushion..........several friends will have them and table runners in their Christmas stockings this year.
