Important Note on Quilt Warmth:
Quilt warmth is subjective and depends on your personal preferences, your home's insulation, and whether you tend to sleep hot or cold. In Australia, quilt warmth is often described using GSM (grams per square meter), TOG (thermal overall grade), or a numbered warmth rating system (e.g., 1–7).
