CHE SIGNIFICA QUILT IN INGLESE

Trapunta

Quilt

Una trapunta è un tipo di coperta, tradizionalmente composta da tre strati di fibre: un tessuto di stoffa superiore, uno strato di battuta o di ovatta e un tessuto di schiena, combinati utilizzando la tecnica di trapuntatura. Una trapunta è distinguibile da altri tipi di coperta perché è piecata insieme a diversi pezzi di stoffa. "Quilting" si riferisce alla tecnica di unione di almeno due strati di tessuto per punti o cravatte. Nella maggior parte dei casi, due strati di tessuto circondano uno strato medio di battuta che è un più leggero, strato isolante. La battuta è spesso indicata come "velluto" in Gran Bretagna. Alcune trapunte moderne sono fatte con uno strato di tessuto superiore, trapuntato a uno strato di microfleece, forse senza un tessuto sostenuto. La superficie del tessuto più decorativa è chiamata "top", ed è il focus di progettazione. Un solo pezzo di tessuto può essere utilizzato come il top o la parte superiore può essere "piecata" da pezzi di tessuto più piccoli. Cucire pezzi più piccoli di tessuto in un più grande patchwork "blocco" di tessuto crea l'unità di base. La "patchwork" della parte superiore è tipicamente fatta di una serie di blocchi, che vengono fatti sequenzialmente e poi assemblati. I blocchi possono essere separati da strisce di tessuto semplici, denominate "sashing".

A quilt is a type of blanket, traditionally composed of three layers of fiber: a woven cloth top, a layer of batting or wadding, and a woven back, combined using the technique of quilting. A quilt is distinguishable from other types of blanket because it is pieced together with several pieces of cloth. “Quilting” refers to the technique of joining at least two fabric layers by stitches or ties. In most cases, two fabric layers surround a middle layer of batting which is a lighter, insulating layer. Batting is often referred to as “wadding” in Britain. Some modern quilts are made with an upper fabric layer, quilted to a layer of microfleece, perhaps without a fabric backing. The most decorative fabric surface is called the “top”, and is the design focus. A single piece of fabric may be used as the top, or the top may be “pieced” from smaller fabric pieces. Sewing together smaller pieces of fabric into a larger patchwork "block" of fabric creates the basic unit. The “patchwork” of the top is typically made of a series of blocks, which are made sequentially and then assembled. The blocks may be separated by plain fabric strips, called “sashing”.
