I've never heard of it, and I can't find a definition either. Are you certain it's an actual type of fabric - as opposed to the name of a collection of cotton prints (e.g., Kanvas Papillon)?
Since no one more knowledgeable has weighed in yet, I'll go out on a limb and suggest that since it's 100% cotton, it's probably fine for quilting - unless you find it's very delicate. Be sure to wash and dry it to take care of shrinkage.
