Quilters
Quilters are individuals who create quilts, which are multi-layered textiles typically made by sewing together three layers: a top layer of fabric, a middle layer of batting for insulation, and a backing layer. This craft often involves artistic design and patterns, showcasing both creativity and skill. Quilting can be done by hand or with sewing machines and often features techniques such as piecing, appliqué, and quilting stitches. While many quilters create quilts for practical use—like warmth and decoration—some focus on artistic expression, producing quilts that are displayed as works of art.
