    I bought that KAQ from AS and I can say it does not get small at all. About the size of a really fat raccoon. I still love it and won't be parting with it anytime soon.

    A small fat raccoon or a big fat raccoon?

    That's fantastic, Dutch! We now have a new official measure of quilt bulk.

    When purchasing quilts, we have to ask 'how many racoons is it?'

    Full grown, or baby? Eastern beaver or Rocky Mountain Spotted beaver?
