Hullo Jane
I'm not going to say it depends on the size of the lap. LOL But, it does depend on what it is going to be used for. If it is for someone sitting in a chair (or a wheel chair) they do not need to be as large as if someone wants a quilt to cuddle on the couch under. The former could be 36" square (a small one) or up to 48". For the couch cuddler, it could be almost the size of a single bed quilt? It probably should be rectangular, rather than square, for that purpose. ..In article , Jane McClure writes I was wondering what is the average size for a lap quilt? Any ideas?

54 inches by 72 inches is a good size for a lap quilt.

I usually try to make the front no wider than the width of the backing fabric.
I hate to have a seam in the back for just a few inches more on the front. Lazy, I guess? joan joan o'reilly New 311 Album--EVOLVER--July 22nd www.311.com |
