How it is calculated
Start from the top of the mattress. Add the drop twice to the width, once for each side, and once to the length for the foot of the bed.
A 10" to 12" drop covers a standard mattress. Deep mattresses need 14" to 16". Add 10" to the length if you want to tuck the quilt under the pillows.
