60"-65" X72"-80" depending on who it's for, we are all fairly tall in my family so I make them long- my favorite is actually 72" X 80" , but I do make them 60"-65" wide sometimes

Same here---depends upon the block size, but usually around 60" x 72".

It depends on who I am making it for - kids can be 50 x 50 if they are little. But usually do the same as the others.

Depends on the size of the person I am making it for.

I don't have a specific size in mind - usually the top tells me when it's done (or I run out of fabric). Most are in the 70-80" length. Width depends on the block size. I did one 64" square and it doesn't quite fit right.
