A Question About Quilt Size
#13
I personally don't make bed quilts but rather make snuggle up on the couch quilts. They are bigger than a lap quilt. I find them more useful than a bed quilt. If I want extra warmth on a bed then I use those quilts on top of everything as they are generally big enough to fit on the top of a bed but not hang down. If she is going to use it as a bedspread then you would need to know what kind of bed they are going to have but bed size quilts can be quite cumbersome for every day snuggle use. I think it depends on how she might use the quilt.

I have made oversized queens for wedding gifts, birthday or just because and no you do not have to match the bedroom decore use colors you know appeal to her and it will be fine it can be used under the coverlet or bedspread and does not have to be the display piece. But it will be pretty and keep them warm.
