Let’s be honest, nothing kills a bedroom vibe faster than a quilt that doesn’t fit your bed (or worse, one that barely covers you and your partner).
Whether you’re shopping for yourself or outfitting the spare room, understanding quilt sizes in Australia can save you a lot of guesswork.
We’re breaking it down simply - no fluff, just facts (okay, maybe a little fluff).
Why Quilt Size Matters
Too small? You’ll be fighting for coverage every night.
Too big? Your quilt hangs over the edge like an awkward tablecloth.
The perfect fit? Dreamy, tailored, and oh-so-inviting.
And if you’re using a quilt that’s technically the right size, but doesn’t feel quite right? It could be about warmth weight, mattress depth, or even your sleep style. But first: let's get your sizing sorted.
Standard Quilt Sizes in Australia
Here’s a clear-cut chart for the most common Aussie quilt sizes:
| Quilt Size | Dimensions (cm) | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Single | 140 x 210 | Single beds, kids’ rooms |
| King Single | 160 x 210 | Extra leg room, growing teens |
| Double | 180 x 210 | Cosy beds, solo sleepers |
| Queen | 210 x 210 | Most common for couples |
| King | 240 x 210 | Spacious beds, more coverage |
| Super King | 270 x 240 | Ultimate luxury, oversized bedding |

Top Tip: Size Up for Maximum Cosiness
Want that hotel-bed vibe at home? If you're a restless sleeper, share your bed with a partner, or just like a little extra drape, go one size up.
Example: Have a Queen bed? Try a King quilt for added coverage and zero midnight tug-of-wars.
Matching Your Quilt with Covers and Sheets
Matching quilt size to cover size is a no-brainer (same dimensions), but don’t forget:
-
Check the label: Quilt covers may vary slightly between brands.
-
Buy deep-pocket sheets if you’ve got a plush mattress or topper.
-
Use ties or clips to keep the quilt in place inside the cover - no bunching = smoother styling.
Not Sure What Size Your Bed Is?
Pull out the tape measure and check your mattress. Here’s a quick cheat sheet:
| Mattress Size | Dimensions (cm) |
|---|---|
| Single | 92 x 188 |
| King Single | 107 x 203 |
| Double | 138 x 188 |
| Queen | 153 x 203 |
| King | 183 x 203 |
| Super King | 203 x 203 |
