Measure the mattress top. Add the desired drop twice across the width and once at the foot. Add pillow tuck separately only if your design needs it.

Plan the finish

Four measurements to confirm

  1. 1. Surface: measure the actual top width and length.
  2. 2. Drop: decide how far the quilt should hang on each side and at the foot.
  3. 3. Tuck: add a pillow tuck only when the planned bed styling uses one.
  4. 4. Process: allow for quilting and washing changes based on your materials and pattern.
