Yes it is a large king for water bed. I put 10 x 10 blocks of leaves. The backing is 120" and it covered all without trimming just a inch was removed I think.
Glad I did not quilt the thing took every thing to sew binding on and hand finish took 4 nights. till 4 am in morning. So I did 5 to 6 hours each night.
Now to finish one for me.

And thank you everyone for the kind words.
Pat

Your quilt for your Daughter turned out beautiful!! I just did binding on a queen size that about killed my shoulder, I can only imagine what a king size would do!
