The quilt top is the uppermost layer of the quilt, overlying the batting (inside layer that gives the quilt most of its warm and depth) and the quilt backing.

There are some quilts, particularly wedding quilts, where the quilt top is a single piece of fabric and the decoration is made solely in the quilting stitches that bind the three layers together.
