Quilts

Quilts are essential for keeping us warm while we sleep, and should feel comfortable from the moment you slip between the covers. Finding the best quilts can be difficult, as it depends a lot on your own preferences. To help, we’ve put together a quick quilt buying guide below.

A Quick Rundown on Quilts

  1. Although the term doonas and quilts in Australia are used interchangeably, there’s actually a slight difference between the two. While quilts have padding that’s encased between layers of fabric, doonas are made of a soft, flat bag that’s filled with feathers, wool or down.
  2. Take note of the quilt size you need. For a beautiful overhang, buy a quilt one size larger than your mattress.
  3. Carefully look at the loft (or density) of your quilt. If you prefer a thick, fluffy quilt, look for a mid to higher loft for those cold winter nights.
  4. The filling that you choose for your quilt will have a big impact. Wool is light, durable and great at regulating body temperature. Feather and down are made up of duck or goose feathers, and will contour with your body shape. Like wool, they’re also lightweight and breathable, and help to reduce sweat. Cotton draws heat and moisture away from the body, making it ideal for the summer months, while synthetic fibres are fast-drying and easy to pop into the wash.
  5. Want filling alternatives? Bamboo is an eco-friendly option that has become especially popular for its hypoallergenic qualities. Alpaca wool, meanwhile, is incredibly light and ideal for temperature regulation.
  6. Keep in mind that body temperature can change throughout the night. It might be wise to invest in an all-season quilt made from natural fibres like down, feather, wool or silk, or buy a summer and a winter quilt, so you can alternate as the weather changes.
  7. Style your quilt in subtle ways. Fluff it up and fold it over to make into an extra-thick comforter or pair with a chunky throw blanket casually draped at the end of your bed. Cuddle up with a new quilt! Head to your nearest Myer store to check out the latest quilts and other bedding accessories. Short on time but can’t wait for the postman?
