I am bothered by the quilt sizes that most quilting programs use and here is why: they show
King size as 110" by 110"
Queen size as 90" by 110"
Full size as 80" by 90"
Twin size as 72" by 90"
Crib size as 36" by 48" (personally I never make them this small)

there should be 2 more sizes that I can think of, one is Lap size and one should be Couch size.

When I think of Lap size, I think about all the people that are handicapped and for them to have a manageable size I think it should be about 48" by 60" which would be easy to fit around those people in wheel chairs.

and Couch size is for people that are taller then 5', LOL, that want to lay around on the couch and snuggle with their personal quilt. I would think this size could be about 54" by 70".

So what's your take on this?
