Others from Google Translate:
peplomo from Esperanto, tumahi from Filipino, deche from German, poplan from Hungarian, edredon from Spanish, yorgon from Turkish, calcha from Portugese, trapunta from Italian~~~~
Just don't call a QUILT a "blanket" as I think there is a difference. ();-)
Correction on the german part.

Eine Decke, is a blanket, which we all know is not a quilt.
Eine Steppdecke, is a quilt. Consistent of three layers.
