I altered a quilt pattern and I thought it would end up 74X82. Well, it is going to be about 92x101. Is this a bad or goofy size. This quilt is a gift for a friend who is retiring.

No thats not goofy, that will just be a nice big quilt. Queen size flat sheets measure 92" x 102"
|
I think it is a great size for a quilt and I am sure your friend will be thrilled with the quilt pab
|
Thank you so much for y'all opinions. I just wasn't sure.
|
Bigger is better :)
|
There is never a quilt that could be goofy!
The more quilt you have, the more you got to snuggle up with. |
That's queen (almost king) size. She'll love it. It will fit her bed and give extra for moving around. Don't you hate when you move or turn over and a body part feels a draft?

I had to smile at your question because I made a quilt this year for my son who is in the Air Force. He was being sent to Alaska and I knew he would need a quilt! (I have made others for him, but knew he'd probably need several layers.) Anyway, it was a log cabin pattern and I decided to increase the size, and all the time I just kept buying more and more fabric (what fun!) until I realized that I had increased it much more than necessary. In the end I had enough blocks for his quilt, one for us (DH and me) and a 56x56 one for my DS and DIL. What can I say, I'm a librarian and obviously not a mathematician. lol

Now that is a good story. I am an analytical person so I really can't figure out how I could be so dumb. Thanks.
|
I agree with bigger is better!
|
it can also be tucked under the pillows if necessary. it should be fine.
