What does QUILT mean in Scrabble?
noun
A bed covering made of two layers of fabric with a soft filling held in place by lines of stitching.
A quilt is built by sandwiching a layer of padding, often cotton or wool wadding, between a top and a bottom piece of cloth, then sewing through all three layers in a pattern that keeps the filling from shifting. The craft of making one, called quilting, often turns the stitching itself into decoration, with pieced or appliqued patterns on the top layer. Quilts range from simple everyday bedding to elaborate heirloom pieces passed down through families. The word can also serve as a verb for the act of stitching such a covering together.
