Quilt has two meanings:
# A decorative bed cover or wall hanging made of colored fabric pieces stitched together with a batting center and a cotton or muslin back.
# One step of the process of assembling a quilt that involves stitching the layers together by hand or machine in either straight lines or patterns. This holds the material together so the batting doesn't shift or bunch, and enhances the beauty of the quilt. The exact origin of the quilt is unknown, but they have been made in many different cultures over the centuries. The oldest known remnant dates to c. 960 BCE, in Egypt.
