    Default Re: Question about sizing

    This can vary depending on what book you are looking at, ultimately it is up to you and how you want the quilt to fall on the bed. Here are some sizes suggested by a few different people:

    General
    Crib 50 x 53"
    Twin 75" x 98"
    Double 83 x 106"
    Queen 90 x 106"
    King 107 x 108"

    Commercial Comforter Sizes
    Twin 65" x 88"
    Double 80" x 88"
    Queen 86" x 93"
    King 104" x 93"

    Bedspread Sizes with longer drop
    Twin 81" x 107"
    Double 96" x 107"
    Queen 102" x 112"
    King 120" x 112"

    The batting you choose will also determine how the quilt lays and falls on the bed (stiff coming off the sides versus really soft and curving with the bed. Poly battings will be really puffy like a comforter).
