I have a wallhanging in my living room that I made about four years ago, measures 18" square. That "quilt" gave me more trouble than any other I have made, including a king size one. I have been sewing for a long, long time and that wallhanging was about the end of my sewing/quilting hobby! I laugh about it now, but believe me, I wasn't laughing then. So it's not always the size that makes a quilt a quilt--I know that from experience!
