I do mine for mainly Birthday gifts, Christmas gifts, etc. They are mainly for family or VERY close friends & so far, they have been "blown away" & very appreciative of all the time & effort it takes to make a quilt. I have not gifted full size quilts - so far they are just a little bigger than lap size, so that they can be used on a couch, a rocking chair or at the bottom of the bed. I usually pick a size about 60 inches x 72 inches approximately. I also choose neutral colours so there is a greater chance it will not clash with their decor. To date, they have been a big hit.
