[QUOTE=bearisgray;6799424]My grandma would occasionally make a cover (coverlet?) that consisted of a pieced top and a cotton backing - knowing my DGM, that was probably pieced, also. There was no filling, and it was tied.
Yup, when I was a kid we called them coverlets. Just the quilt top and a backing. There usually was no binding and the quilt was sewn together (right sides together) along the edges leaving an opening so it could be turned. Then it was quilted. In my house they were called summer quilts/coverlets.
