Quilts are bed coverings made up of three layers: a quilt
top, a layer
of batting, and a layer of material for backing. The layers are usually
combined using the technique of quilting. Quilting is the process of
using a needle and thread to combine two or more layers of cloth. This
step may be only functional, or if more elaborate, for decoration and
design.
Tying is another method of connecting the layers in quilts together.
This method is usually chosen when a quilt is needed quickly for
functional purposes. The three layers still need to be prepared and
basted. Thread or yarn is used for the process. Square knots are used
to finish off the ties, which are placed 3-5" apart all over the quilt.
A quilt that is tied is sometimes called a comforter.
There are many special tools which can assist the quilting process from
special sewing machines, to frames which hold the large fabric pieces
during assembly and quilting, to special threads and fabrics. You will
find a vast selection here in the quilting store. Please use the search

Quilts!
Quilters
are at the forefront of the do-it-yourself movement, constantly
improving their craft and delving into its history. Our pioneer
ancestors could
never have imagined that there would come a day when their utilitarian,
functional craft was considered not only trendy and hip, but so
beautiful as to
be art!
