Can I use it year-round? Yes — choose lighter quilts for summer and heavier ones for winter.

Are quilts machine washable? Many are, but always check the care label for specific instructions.

How do I style a quilt? Layer it over your bedspread, fold at the foot of the bed, or drape over a sofa or chair.
