How to choose quilt fabric

Generally, cotton fabrics, silk fabrics or linen fabrics are chosen. Cotton fabrics will wrinkle, but they are very suitable for use in winter. In summer, most of them choose silk fabric quilts, which are comfortable and breathable. Linen quilt fabrics are not widely used in China, but quilts made of such fabrics are cooler to use, and most of them are used in spring and autumn. Some people will choose the quilt of brushed fabric, and the inner liner will use mulberry silk. I personally think that high-count cotton fabrics are the best. High-count cotton quilts have high counts and high densities, making them comfortable to use, but they are expensive.

Most people pay attention to what kind of fabric it is when purchasing bedding. Some like pure cotton, some like silk, and some like poly-cotton. And these fabrics have their own different characteristics, the price is not the same,

The following introduces the characteristics and identification methods of various fabrics to help you choose the quilt that suits you.

Polyester-cotton products generally use polyester-cotton fabrics with a ratio of 65¶¤ fiber and 35£‰. Polyester-cotton is divided into two types: plain weave and twill weave. Plain weave polyester-cotton fabric is thin and thin, with good strength and wear resistance, and the shrinkage rate is very small. The finished product is not easy to lose shape, and the price is affordable, and the durability is good, but the comfort and fit are not as good as pure cotton. In addition, because polyester is not easy to dye, polyester-cotton fabrics are mostly light and light-colored, and this type of home textile is more suitable for spring and summer. Twill weave polyester is usually denser than plain weave, so it looks dense and thick, and its surface gloss and feel are better than plain weave.

Yarn-dyed cotton is a kind of pure cotton fabric, which is woven with warp and weft yarns of different colors. Because it is dyed first and then weaved, the dye has strong permeability, the color fastness is better, and the different-colored yarn fabric has a strong three-dimensional effect and a unique style. It has the characteristics of a pure cotton fabric, but usually shrinks more.

The warp and weft density of high-count and high-density jacquard pure cotton fabric is particularly large, and the weaving method is rich in changes. Therefore, the fabric feels thick, has good durability, and has a high surface finish. A more advanced type.

Pure cotton feels good, comfortable to use, easy to dye, rich in variety of patterns, soft and warm, strong hygroscopicity, washable, less static electricity, is widely used in quilt materials; but easy to wrinkle, easy to shrink, poor elasticity, It is acid-resistant and not alkali-resistant, and it is not suitable for long-term treatment at high temperatures above 100 degrees Celsius. Therefore, it is best to spray wet cotton products when ironing, which is easy to iron. If possible, iron the product with a steam iron after each use for better results.

Silk looks gorgeous and rich, with natural soft light and shimmering effects, comfortable feeling, high strength, better elasticity and moisture absorption than cotton, but it is easy to get dirty, and its heat resistance to strong sunlight is worse than cotton. The fiber cross-section is uniquely triangular, and the reflection of light changes after local moisture absorption, which is easy to form water stains and is difficult to remove, so white cloth should be used when ironing silk fabrics.
