It is recommended that your Quilt / Doona and Quilt Cover / Doona Cover are both a size larger than your bed sizes. You can use King quilt covers for your queen bed. This allows for a nice overhang at the end and on the sides of the bed, and therefore ensures that you do not see the mattress. It will also alleviate the draft that you may feel whilst trying to sleep. This is especially relevant for newer beds, as mattresses have progressively become higher over the years. If you're seeking more guidance on selecting the perfect quilt, don't hesitate to explore our Quilt buying guide page for more comprehensive information.
