Cal King just shy of 120x120. It was one of my first quilts and the only one I had long arm quilted. It was probably also my most expensive quilt as it is mostly Hoffman fabrics and I had it long arm quilted instead of doing it myself.

My DH kept complaining that no one ever made a quilt big enough to actually use on a bed. So I am making a king size quilt with golf fabrics for him. It is about 100X100, 49 D9P blocks. I machine pieced it, but I am hand qilting it right now. My next priject will be something small, like a table runner!

I made a Ca king sized quilt, but went a step further and made it long enough and wide enough to be a bedspread. Don't ask me measurements because by the time I got that big I just wanted it done. The only good thing about it was it had buttons instead of quilting, it was in a mag I got a few yrs ago. I knew if I made one that big there would be no way I could quilt it, so I used that pattern and love it. But it was a job and a half.

My daughter's quilt. A queen size kaleidescope with two poly battings and the backing is minky. While i was quilting it on my sewing machine I felt like I was sewing a rolled up rug. 2 pictures attached
