Native speaker’s answer

Rebecca

A "quilt" is a heavy blanket or bed-covering normally made by sewing multiple squares of multi-colored fabric together. It is a more old-fashioned way to make a blanket and they are not very common to make today, except among older generations of people. Sometimes grandmothers will make quilts as gifts for their grandchildren or relatives.
