Caroline, If they sell precut batting for quilts in your country it should already be sized for various bed sizes. For instance a crib batt is usually 45x60 inches in the US. That would give you a place to start.

BABY between 36″ X 36″ and 52″ X 52″ or 91cm x 91cm and 132cm x 132cm. This size can depend on whether the quilt will be used in a crib.
CRIB between 30″x 46″ and 36″ x 50″ or 76cm x 117cm and 91cm x 127cm. If you are making this sized quilt as a gift, see if you can get the measurements each manufacturer has their own sizes and crib mattresses are different sizes too.
COT between 58″ x 90″ and 72″ x 108″ or 147cm x 229cm and 183cm x 274cm.
TODDLER 46″ x 70″ or 117cm x 178cm for a quilt. A toddler bed most often uses a crib mattress, however not always, so it is best to measure first.
BUNK between 66″ x 89″ and 74″ x 103″ or 168cm x 226cm and 188cm x 262cm .
WHEELCHAIR LAP QUILT 36″ x 36″ to 38″ x 47″ or 91cm x 91cm to 97cm x 119cm adding ties is sometimes a good idea, so they dont slip off.
LAP between 52″ 68″ or 132cm x 173cm wide and the length can be from about 52″ 78″ or 132cm x 198cm. Although a lap quilt can be any size. A quilt that a child will want to bring along could be as small as 36″x36″ or 91cm x 91cm. A lap quilt that is 42″x 60″ 107cm x 152cm is great for cuddling up on the couch with.
TWIN between 64″ 72″ or 163cm x 183cm wide and the length can be from about 86″ 96″ or 218cm x 244cm.
FULL between 70″ 88″ or 178cm x 224cm wide and the length can be from about 88″ 100″ or 224cm x 254cm.
QUEEN between 88″ 99″ or 224cm x 251cm wide and the length can be from about 94″ 108″ or 239cm x 274cm.
QUEEN WATERBED 76″ x 104″ or 193cm x 264cm.

When I read the title, all I could think about was weight!
Helllo!
Size would matter indeed, if you didn't know how big your quilt needed to be made for a specific project. I have a little wallet card that I keep handy that shows quilt and bed measurements on it.
