    I think 36x45 would be good. Wide enough to tuck around most and long enough to reach near the ankles. I just tried a 36x36 and it didn't reach down very far and I'm not that tall anymore.

    Thank you for your opinion. I think I will use your recommendation.

    Another comment about the birthing method--I always left a gap in the edge sewing and then finished it off by hand after turning. But if you can leave a seam open in the piecing, maybe on an added border, you can sew all the way around the outside, turn it at the gap and then top stitch the opening closed by machine as part of the quilting. This, of course, is for charity quilts, not show quilts.

    Here's one that has all the bells and whistles that also works for scooters (with extended tabs) - download only.
