I naturally Goggled the question, and most times they speak of thread count, but I don't feel this is the only answer.
I was in a quilt shop clearance area and a bolt of material was so thin and soft I asked why this feels so different? The saleswoman said the name/type of fabric (I can't remember-short word) and said that's it's used for clothing not quilting.

I wonder if that's what you have?
