What Is a Quilt?

A quilt is a layered bedding piece made of an insulating fill stitched between an outer fabric casing. Unlike a duvet or comforter, quilts often feature intricate stitching patterns—such as boxed or channelled construction—which help maintain loft and evenly distribute warmth.

Common Fill Types:

• Goose Down & Feather: Light, fluffy, and naturally insulating. Ideal for year-round use.

• Eiderdown: One of the rarest, softest, and warmest fills available—luxury defined.

• Wool: Naturally breathable and hypoallergenic, perfect for those with sensitivities.

• Synthetic: Affordable, lightweight, and easy to maintain—great for allergy-prone households.

Quilt Construction:

• Boxed Quilts: Feature sewn-in squares that prevent fill migration and maintain consistent warmth.

• Channelled Quilts: Long, vertical seams allow for some fill movement—ideal for tailored comfort and breathability.

The combination of fill and construction directly affects the warmth, loft, and durability of your quilt, making it essential to choose a style that suits your lifestyle and sleep habits.

Quilt Size & Seasonality Guide

Finding the right quilt means matching size with sleep space and warmth with climate. Here’s how to get it right:

Standard Sizes:

• Single – Ideal for children or guest beds.

• Double – Suits compact beds or solo sleepers.

• Queen & King – Perfect for couples or extra coverage.

• US Sizes – Available for those with imported beds or larger-scale needs.

Matching Quilt to Season:

Understanding GSM & TOG:

• GSM (grams per square metre): Measures weight, indicating warmth.

• TOG: Thermal resistance rating common in Europe (not all quilts display this).

If you live in a warmer Australian climate, go for light GSM quilts. In colder regions, look for high GSM or luxury blends like Eiderdown Quilts.

Deep Dive: Which Quilt Is Right for You?

Why Choose Channelled Quilts for Breathable Comfort?

Premium Channelled quilts use vertical stitched columns that allow air to circulate while maintaining warmth. Filled with a premium down & feather blend, this style promotes excellent breathability and lightweight insulation.

Ideal for hot sleepers or those living in warmer Australian climates, channelled quilts deliver cooler nights without compromising comfort. The streamlined construction offers a lighter feel without sacrificing loft.

This style is best for summer or all-season use, especially for people who tend to overheat. It’s also ideal for minimalist interiors thanks to its sleek, tailored look.

To maintain your channelled quilt, air it regularly and opt for professional cleaning to preserve its loft.

Why Choose Boxed Quilts for Balanced Warmth?

Boxed quilts feature evenly spaced, sewn-in pockets that hold the fill in place—delivering consistent warmth across the entire quilt.

This structure helps prevent cold spots and is perfect for cooler months. The high-quality feather and down blend offers superb loft, making boxed quilts feel full and plush.

Perfect for cold sleepers, winter use, or anyone in a cooler climate, these Boxed quilts bring both insulation and luxurious comfort.

Keep it in top shape by airing weekly and dry cleaning as needed to retain its fullness.

Why Choose His and Her Quilts for Personalised Comfort?

His and Her quilts are cleverly designed with dual warmth zones—one side lighter, the other warmer—so both partners can sleep soundly.

This innovative solution eliminates the nightly tug-of-war and ensures individual comfort without compromise. Each side is custom-filled for thermoregulated bliss.

Ideal for couples with different sleep preferences, His & Her quilts are a relationship game-changer.

Maintain by spot-cleaning regularly and dry cleaning when needed. Rotate sides seasonally to maintain even loft.

Why Choose Eiderdown Quilts for Unmatched Luxury?

Eiderdown quilts are the epitome of opulence, filled with ultra-rare, hand-harvested eiderdown from the Arctic region. Known for its cloud-like softness and extreme warmth, it’s nature’s most luxurious insulator.

Lightweight yet powerful, eiderdown adjusts to your body temperature and provides incomparable thermal regulation.

Perfect for those in colder climates or connoisseurs of fine bedding. If you want the best of the best, this is it.

Maintain by airing out often and having it professionally cleaned to retain its rare fill.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between boxed and channelled quilts?

Boxed quilts have sewn-in squares that keep fill evenly distributed, ideal for consistent warmth. Channelled quilts use vertical seams, allowing some fill movement—better for airflow and warmer climates.

Are eiderdown quilts worth the investment?

Yes. Eiderdown quilts offer unmatched warmth, softness, and longevity. They’re incredibly lightweight yet insulating, making them ideal for cold sleepers seeking a premium experience.

Which quilt is best for hot sleepers?

Channelled quilts with light goose down or wool filling are ideal for hot sleepers. They’re breathable, temperature-regulating, and prevent overheating.

Can I wash Supreme Quilts at home?

While spot cleaning is fine, we recommend professional dry cleaning to maintain loft and fill quality, especially for down and feather quilts.

Are His & Her quilts good for couples with different warmth needs?

Absolutely. They’re designed with dual-zone warmth so each side suits different temperature preferences—perfect for harmonious sleep.

How do I pick the right quilt for an Australian summer?

Look for low GSM quilts filled with breathable materials like wool or lightweight down. Channelled construction also helps with air circulation during hot nights.
