Quilting is a textile art form that involves sewing together layers of fabric to create a padded, decorative design. Traditionally, quilts are made up of three layers: the quilt top, batting (a soft, insulating material), and the backing fabric. Quilting stitches hold these layers together, forming a durable and visually appealing textile. 

Quilting is a versatile and rewarding craft that allows for creativity and self-expression. Whether you're making a small lap quilt or a large bedspread, the key is to enjoy the process and take pride in the unique, handmade creation you've crafted.
