I LOVED that the quilt was oversized. It is soooooo hard to find comforters and quilts that will cover enough mattress and boxsprings that are on the market (pillow tops, etc).  I really love this and wish that others would make oversized comforters so that my boxspring does not show. I can't even find a decent bedskirt that fits. I would want a wrap around bedskirt as the large mattresses are virtually impossible to lift.
