Quilted bedspreads

The bed in the bedroom is of primary importance, and the whole interior of the room depends on what it is “dressed” in. That is why it is so important to choose suitable furniture for a sleeping bed. One of the types of capes on the bed, which represents the textile industry, is a quilted bedspread.

What it is?

Quilted bedspread is usually made of two cuts fabric and seal. To connect fabrics to each other, they need to be quilted.

Modern industry offers two types of stitches:

  • Stitch with thread. This type of fabric binding has been used for a long time. With the help of stitches on the surface of the bedspread various patterns are formed. These can be lines, squares, herringbone, flowers, monograms and other fantasy drawings. The disadvantage of such bonding is that during the process of connection, holes are formed in the needle from the needle, and if the stitch is incorrectly applied, after its blooming, the fabric loses its appearance.In addition, if the thread stitches during operation of the product breaks, then the stitch will bloom to the point where the thread is fixed, which will cause the cover to deform.

In addition, such a combination of fabrics requires the selection of the color of the threads so that the stitch does not contrast with the cover.

  • Thermo Stitch. The fastening of the web here occurs by exposure to ultrasound. As a result of this manipulation, the tissues seem to be fused together, forming a secure bond. Such a connection has a number of advantages. It does not deform the fabric, there are no traces of needles on it. Also, if one spike is broken, the rest remain intact, the stitch does not spread.

Materials

For the manufacture of quilted materials used a huge variety of fabrics, both natural and synthetic.

Here are the main ones:

  • Silk. This is a natural, but quite expensive material. It is environmentally friendly, hypoallergenic. Differs special softness. But silk products are difficult to care for, as the fabric may shrink. But in an interior where such cover is applied, it will bring chic and special charm.
  • Cotton. Also natural material.It is much cheaper than the previous matter, but products from it are more resistant to abrasion, easy to maintain. They are also pleasant to the touch. Denim blankets or percale products are made from cotton.
  • Linen. This natural material is a little denser than cotton, it also costs more. Linen bedspreads are simple and elegant, but this fabric is quite heavy in care. She sits down heavily, so she requires extremely careful washing. In addition, flax is heavily wrinkled during operation, you cannot lie down on such a bedspread, it will immediately lose its appearance and will have to be ironed.
  • Polyester. These are artificial threads from which a whole gamut of other matters is made.
  • Microfiber. Covers of this matter are now at the peak of popularity. For its production are used the basis of dense fabric and the thinnest threads of polyester, which form on the surface of matter a kind of fluff. Such an analogue of a fur blanket will add comfort to your home. In addition, covers from this material are easy to maintain, do not require ironing and serve for a very long time without losing their appearance.
  • Synthetic jacquard. This is woven fabric, which is made of multi-colored threads.Drawing on it is not printed, but done using a loom. Therefore, there is no likelihood that it will peel off or rub off over time. Synthetic jacquard is very dense, has an elegant sheen. Covers from it are durable, easy to operate.
  • Synthetic atlas. This fabric is also often used for making blankets. Satin canvas has a glossy sheen. It is easy to clean. It gives coolness when it comes in contact with it, therefore it is ideal for summer. In addition, such a product is easy to care for. It does not require special detergents and methods of drying. In addition, its cost is extremely small.
  • Synthetic satin. Another kind of polyester fabric. This fabric is similar in appearance to the cotton counterpart, but its wear-resistant properties are much higher. Covers from such sateen are quite pleasant to the touch, easily washable, look quite expensive, although their cost is quite democratic.

As a heater in the production of quilted covers used sintepon. It is a synthetic material consisting of fine fibers between which pores are formed. These holes are filled with air, thereby creating an airbag that prevents heat from escaping. Thus, the sintepon provides excellent thermal protection.When used in a blanket, it has a slightly different function - it helps the product to keep its shape perfectly, gives it a volume.

Colors

The palette of colors in which quilted bedspreads are now produced is quite large. It allows you to choose a product for any interior of the room, in whatever colors it was not performed:

Therefore, bedspreads made in textile factories usually have standard sizes that are suitable for a particular type of bed:

It can be applied also to the one-and-a-half bed which is usually used for teenagers. Also for a teenage bed the size of the bed cover will fit 160x220 cm. Such a size would be appropriate for such a bed if it is in the middle of the room and does not have a footboard. Although this size is intended for a double bed, it will be too small for a bed with a mattress size of 140 cm, unless the bed is not moved one side to the wall.
  • For a standard bed for two you should give preference to the dimensions of the bed cover 200x220 cm. It will be enough to cover the sleeping place on which the mattress is installed with a width of 160 cm.
