Quilt Size Guide

- Queen Quilt (approx. 86" x 96"): These quilts are specifically designed for queen-sized beds, offering generous overhang on all sides for a balanced, polished look.
- King Quilt (approx. 104" x 96"): Built for king-sized beds, these quilts ensure ample coverage across the entire surface, including the thicker mattress depth. They provide a luxurious drape fit for larger bed frames.
- California King Quilt (approx. 100" x 98"): Slightly longer than the standard king, these quilts accommodate the unique dimensions of California King mattresses, offering adequate length and enough width for a neat finish.

When choosing a quilt size, you’ll first need to know the size of your mattress. (Measure your mattress first, then consult this chart for your mattress size.) From there, the chart above will give you approximate guidelines on some standard quilt sizing – but know that the above sizes are approximate and that manufacturer sizes will vary slightly. Also note the third column in the chart above – quilt drop, or how many inches you can expect the quilt to hang from the sides of your bed.
