I have been asked to make a lap size quilt as a raffle item. This is to be part of a fund raising event for a non-profit organization. They will pay for the materials and backing. I just need to know what size a lap size quilt is. I know there are going to be many opinion, including don't do it, but the organization has seen my less than stellar quilting efforts and seem to think it'll be fine. I have until June for the quilt but am having carpal tunnnel/ulnar nerve transposition surgery in early Jan so need to start planning it now. From what I understand, I have complete freedom in the color/pattern choices.

I think it's around baby blanket size---like for a wheel chair. Pretty useless in MPO but there are some that like them. Most people think that to ask for something larger is asking too much. Personally I'd much rather make a couch throw size.

It would be larger than a baby blanket.
There are many different sizes to lap quilts, Probably a minimum of 46 x 64. Something that someone can curl up on the couch with while watching a movie or something.
