Is this considered quilting?
Is it still considered quilting if the middle layer of a quilt is interfacing instead of batting?
I just finished my 'quilted' yoga mat bag and it occurred to me that maybe I shouldn't use the term quilted. The dictionary term is: A quilt is a multi-layered textile, traditionally composed of three layers of fiber. My yoga mat bag is made of cotton fabric on both the inside and outside, with a fiber interfacing between the two, and everything is sewn together. But does fiber interfacing count...? |
It does in my book!
I remember hearing about "summer" quilts which were just pieced tops and a backing with no batting in between layers. (This may be a Southern US thing if I remember). |
I think so. Batting takes all forms, whether it's interfacing or thick puffy polyester. But then, that's just my opinion.
|
I would certainly consider it a quilt.
|
Me too. It's a quilt :)

Thanks everyone. I will continue to call it a quilted yoga mat bag.https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/smile.png
I've never heard of a 'summer' quilt before - reminiscent of a duvet cover without the duvet. |
That's lovely!
|
Of course it's a quilt! Don't let anyone tell you different.

I'm going to "batt" the quilt I'm making now with flannel or a sheet.
