...that over these two years I've learned a lot about quilts' usefulness in my own home, and some of the simple things that make them so. Thanks to having found a bunch of elegant upholstery sample books that'd been tossed out, I've made a few dense, but not too heavy 'coverlets' -- one of which we use on the bed, for a surprising amount of warmth in the winter-time, 'surprising' because 'coverlet' means it has no filler, nor is it quilted, either by hand or machine. It's simply either faced with a sheet of plain fabric, or bound with narrow cloth tape to keep edges from raveling.
