This list doesn’t represent every quilt I’ve tested, only the quilts that are still available. Cultiver’s Quilted Bedcover was beautiful, lightweight, and cool. But it comes in only one, non-standard size (104 by 104 inches, which is larger than a king) and three colors. It’s also filled with polyester batting, and for the hefty price I would have preferred a non-synthetic fill, like cotton or wool.Crate + Kids Wonderland Prairie Embroidered Voile Kids Quilt and Crate + Kids Cloud Embroidered Hand-Quilted Kids Quilt come in lots of muted designs that stylish parents might love for a nursery, but the fabrics are thinner than that of our Pottery Barn Kids pick. What’s more, kids might outgrow the designs more quickly, given the limited design choices for older kids. And when we tested them, the Wonderland’s ruffled edge wrinkled in the wash and looked messy without ironing (which I did not do).CQC’s Good Morning Quilt had a beautiful print, but the cotton inside wasn’t combed thoroughly. There were dark pieces of debris from the cotton plant still in it, and I could see them through the very thin outer cotton fabric.Garnet Hill’s Dream Quilt, which we originally tested for the blankets guide in 2020, is very similar to our pick from The Company Store. It comes in the same bed sizes, but it’s also available as a throw. The color (indigo) on our original Garnet Hill test quilt looked faded after a few washes, though, and the Company Store offers more (and better) color choices.Jungalow’s Sun and Moon Quilt Set is one of the few Jungalow quilts made with solid-color fabrics. The quilted stitching creates the design and they’re layered with fluffy polyester batting to make it puffy and three-dimensional. This one was thicker and warmer than our Jungalow pick, and the sewing was a bit messier.Lands’ End’s Barn Star Quilt is a well constructed, 100% cotton patchwork quilt. Our Garnet Hill pick’s stitching was just a little neater and more consistent, but if this one has a good discount, it’s worth buying.Quince’s Cotton Velvet Quilt picked up tons of lint and dust across the plush surface, and by the end of testing it looked dingy. It was also hot to sleep under—it felt more like a comforter.Quince’s European Linen Cotton Stitch Quilt is linen on the front and cotton on the back. After our wear tests it had a lot of pilling on the linen side.Quince’s European Linen Box Quilt was one of the heavier quilts I tested in 2023, and it feels more like a comforter. The surface was a little scratchy, and it had a few pulls and pills after a wash. Also, it’s filled with polyester batting.Quince’s Organic Airy Gauze Box Quilt was made of summery gauze fabric on the outside but stuffed with polyfill, like a down-alternative pillow or comforter. It was hot to sleep under, and the gauze was easily damaged in testing.Riley’s Mosaic Cotton Quilt was lightweight, stretchy, and surprisingly warm to sleep under. But it pilled and tore easily in testing, and it arrived with several loose threads and wonky stitches. For the price, we wanted stronger construction.Target’s Casaluna Heavyweight Linen Blend Quilt is thick linen on the front and smooth cotton on the back. The one I tested had a few construction issues, like unclipped threads around the edges and a few loose quilt stitches along the surface, but it was cozy.This article was edited by Daniela Gorny and Joanne Chen.
