Oh, Julie, that's just the right size for a lap quilt. Much larger, and it would be a twin-bed size. I made two of those in reds...one for my married daughter and one for her wedding coordinator.
If you want the pink quilt larger, add a wide border! It's beautiful.
The hydrangeas are lovely, as is the lily. Your season is ahead of ours here. I have both those plants, and there are not even buds in sight yet.
I love it and have to tell your get that a lot here about being too small! It's perfect I say! I hope you quilt it with sweet flowers...so cute and girly.
Pink quilt is beautiful!! you have inspired me to make one! If you have a place on the wall -- perfect size!! and perfect for a lappy!!
Joyce calls that size nap blankies so it's the perfect size! I love the hydrangea -- we had blue ones in AL and they were my favorites. The Jubilee quilt will be stunning! Happy birthday whenever it is!
Oh Julie, The pink quilt is stunning. Love, love it. DO not put it in a closet, it is the perfect size be folded and put on the bottom of a bed. Happy birthday!!
I love the pink, it looks to be the perfect size to me. When do you turn 50? My turn is in June!
I love your blocks and your pink quilt is gorgeous, beautiful work.

I'm thinking the person who said it was too small was wanting it for their own bed!?! Of course, it's perfect as a lap quilt.....snuggly sized to cuddle up with on the couch! Perfect! And oh.....thanks for the pics of the hydrangeas and lilies.....we are just now seeing green popping out of the mulch here in Maine.....will be a long time before my lilies are blooming! I needed that little bit of lovely! Thanks!
That border on the pink quilt is perfect! And I think the size is just right - that's a nice-sized lap quilt!
Your plants (flowers and tomatoes) are way ahead of ours ... it's just now time to safely plant tomatoes. It won't be long before you'll be eating fresh tomatoes!
Congratulations on your Jubilee quilt - it's going to be wonderful. And I think your pink is perfect!!
What! Too small! Forget it, it is perfect.
Loving the Jubilee quilt, what method of applique are you doing?
Too small for what? And who asked them? Are they the quilt police?
It's funny how some people can take the wind out of someone's sails, eh? I just hate when that happens to me!
Gorgeous! Simply gorgeous! Not sure which I love more, the Jubilee blocks or the Pink quilt! Love your flowers! My roses have faded, but after I dead head them, they'll come out again.
Hee, hee...I'm in the home stretch on my bag. If I'd quit adding pockets and embroidery, I'd been done by now! I have 2 more days off to enjoy! I be a sewing fool!
Pink quilt is beautiful!It is perfect!
Your pink quilt is perfect! Don't listen to whoever told you it was too small- quilts come in all sizes :-)
Love your jubilee blocks- when is your big day?
I am sorry that family member was in a critical mood - probably ate something that disagreed with them and took it out on your gorgeous quilt! Hadn't thought of doing an all pink but you have made me want to now! It's beautiful and whether it is the right size depends on what YOU want to use it for!
Your work is gorgeous!
The quilt is the perfect size for a lap quilt in my book :)
Love the flowers, yes they are hydrangeas x
Your jubilee quilt is going to be fantastic! Its looking wonderful already!!
Let's try to get the wind back in your sails because that pink quilt is a) gorgeous and b) the perfect size for curling up with a good book. It really must come out of the closet!
Your pink quilt is beautiful and don't let anyone tell you it isn't. It's perfect just the way it is! :0)
Love your pink quilt, nice border too, and I love that size, you hang it where everyone can see it ok LOL!!! The Missing Groom block is great, in fact this quilt is going to be fantastic!!!!
I love the groom's block. What a lovely quilt in the making.
Love that border on the pink quilt. So wonderfully bright and cheerful and perfect. Unless the quilt's for grumble-guts, don't worry about opinions on size - you are the creator and master of your quilts.
I love all the pinks! It is perfect. Can't wait to see you finish it up.
I think it is the perfect size, but I know how you feel. I get all excited about a quilt then show my hubby and he tells me the same thing. He is convinced that if it doesn't fit on a twin bed or larger than it doesn't qualify as a quilt. I think that is why I enjoy my quilt guild so much, They like all sizes and "show and tell" is so much more fun there. :)
Beautiful pinks! Pooh on that family member.
Your wool applique looks fab!
The border is perfect as is. A dark pink binding will frame it nicely. Some people just enjoy bringing others down with their negativity. Do NOT put it in the closet! If you do - they win!
Your Jublilee quilt is making up so nice, I just love the look of the applique. It makes me think a little of Pennsylvania Dutch for some reason.
Your pink quilt is beautiful and I guess it isn't big enough to cover that persons big mouth! lol, just kidding, I am sure they did not mean it as a put down. Some people just do not think before they speak.
Love the pink quilt! It is the perfect size to cover my half of our queen size bed. Then hubby can be cooler and I can be warmer. There is no such thing as too small or too large for a quilt. There is a place for every size and every size has a place.
The pink quilt is so pretty. It's a good size for a lap quilt, IMHO!!
Love your Jubilee quilt--wool appilque is fun because you don't have to turn under the edges!

I really love the pink quilt, wow, just gorgeous...
I think it's the perfect size. I get that all the time from people I know, but they don't quilt. The first thing they say, "why don't you make a king size quilt" I always ask them, why don't they make one since it's so easy. uggghh....People.
I agree with Tonya... non-quilters have no clue what goes into making a quilt of any size. Yours is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

LOVE that pink quilt! :)
The pink quilt is much to pretty to hide away. The size is just right.
I think it is perfect! Not all quilt want or need to be large. The smaller ones are very nice too. Where do you live that your tomatoes are getting red already!???
XOXOXO Subee
Just gotta ask--was the family member a size 3X?
'Nuff said.
Hello Julie, your pink quilt is gorgeous....I have only made one king size quilt....most of my quilts I make visually...so not one is ever the same size...Hugs, O'faigh
Julie, your flowers are lovely! As for the gorgeous pink quilt, consider the comment a compliment as the offender surely meant that it is so lovely it should be bigger. I am so happy to see that you are making Karen's quilt! It is so wonderful! I agree that the groom is an adorable block. and it wool! Nice job!
I love you pink pineapple blossom quilt! I'm trying to finish my second one. I listened to family about being bigger, now I wished I went a tad smaller, it will be a king. That is why it's not done lol.
