That's a good looking quilt. What size did you make your quilt? I'm currently in the process of making quilts for my parents. They're not in a nursing home yet but are at an age where they could be soon.

The quilt is 42 x 54. Vicki told me that they needed to be about the size of a baby quilt. Since that varies, I sort of guessed, and went a little wider. I wanted it wide enough to tuck in the sides pretty good.
