Can anyone tell me how much smaller it will be after it is quilted. Someone told me that it will draws up some or shrink in size after it is quilted.

If so, what will the size of a quilt top that measures 120 x117 end up being..

Right now it looks kind of big on my king size bed and I didn't know if I should try and cut it down some or just leave it..... Thanks :D
How much the quilting shrinks up a quilt depends totally on how much quilting you have done.
