what size is a queen blanket

A standard queen blanket is usually around 90 inches by 90–100 inches (about 229 cm by 229–254 cm). This gives enough overhang on a queen mattress, which is typically 60 inches by 80 inches.

Typical queen blanket sizes

  • Common size: 90" x 100" (230 cm x 250 cm).
  • General range: 90" wide by 90–100" long.
  • Some brands label a 90" x 90" blanket as a full/queen blanket.

Why sizes vary a bit

Different manufacturers and regions use slightly different standards, so you’ll see queen blankets anywhere in that 90" x 90–100" band. That’s why two “queen” blankets can fit a little differently even though they’re for the same bed size.

Quick sizing tip

If you want more drape down the sides and foot of the bed, look closer to 90" x 100"; if you prefer a snugger look, 90" x 90" usually works well. Always compare the blanket measurements to your mattress (typically 60" x 80" for a queen) before buying.
