    I do all sizes but starting to think about lap size as they are quicker but will do large lap so they cover me

    Right now I'm doing bed size, but have two wall hangings I want to do for gifts.

    I make all sizes - from 16"x20" to 120"x120". Just depends on what I need a quilt for. Right now I'm making a lot of the very small ones for seasonal wall hangings. My preference is about 48"x72"; large enough to cover up in the chair or on the couch, small enough to put on the back of the couch or hang on the wall, and easy to quilt on my DSM.

    I've made more bed sized (queen and king) than lap size, but that may change.

    Make a variety of sizes but from now will probably make smaller as all my family has bed size.

    I usually make queen size quilts. I quilt them on my DSM.

    I make quilts for wounded soldiers and they are twin size and smaller. Although I live in the south, it gets cold and wet in the winter. We like "couch" or "cuddle " quilts for watching TV in the evenings. My husband is 6'-5" and I kept measuring him in his recliner while adding strips to HIS quilt. It ended up being twin size to be long enough when he curled up under it. It was funny, I just kept adding and adding and he kept smiling. It is a disappearing 9 patch patter in shades of browns from my stash. He really loves that quilt. He was glad to get something from all the mess and ravelings. He's still smiling.

    For myself, either large lap size or queen size, depending on what I want to use it for. Overall, most of my quilts are made for Quilts for Kids so most of them are kids' size!
