While quilt designers don't adhere to standard quilt sizes when designing bed quilt patterns (there's help for that further down on this page), bedding manufacturers tend to be a bit more consistent and do follow some general guidelines. Our chart below shows the standard mattress, bedding and quilt sizes generally used in the United States. Measure first to find a quilt pattern that fits your bedperfectly. This a queen size quilt kit is available fromKeepsake Quiltingthere are slight variations Pre-cut, packaged quilt batting sizes are also listed for your convenience. After deciding which quilt size best fits your bed, add approximately 6"-8" to both width and length measurements to determine the batting and backing sizes that you'll need to finish your own quilts.
Quilts that are intended to be long arm quilted also need additional batting and backing. Check with your longarm quilter for her specific requirements. They are probably different than what you'd use if you quilted it on your home sewing machine. Remember that on a long arm machine, the layers are rolled together instead of pinned. If you would like to print out the chart below, click here. For sizes tailored to your specific mattress, add the numbers for width and length (last 2 rows in pale yellow) to the width and length of your own mattress. Pre-cut, packaged battings come in standard sizes:This batting information is also included in the downloadable chart. While manufacturers use standard quilt sizes for production, we all know that the quilt size you NEED depends on the mattress, bed frame and the "look" you desire for the bed to be covered.
