quilted fabric

Layered sewn textile

Quilted fabric consists of two or more layers of material stitched together with padding between them, creating a soft, insulated textile with a characteristic pattern of raised sections.

The stitching holds the layers in place while forming decorative geometric designs—squares, diamonds, or flowing lines.

Used for blankets, jackets, and bedding: a quilted fabric vest, quilted fabric for the baby's crib.
