The quilt size that matches your mattress is not always the size that will give you the best result. Discover how sizing up can provide better coverage, create a fuller-looking bed and give you the opportunity to choose a quilt that better suits the way you sleep. Most people automatically choose a quilt that is the same size as their mattress. A Queen bed gets a Queen quilt, while a King bed gets a King quilt. While this may be the standard approach, it is not always the best choice for every bed or sleeper. Depending on the depth of...
