A double or compound fabric: the quilted character and raised patterns are made on a jacquard or dobby loom. Crepe yarn and ordinary yarn are interlaced in the warp and filling, or only in the filling. In finishing, the crepe yarn shrinks and causes the ordinary yarn to pucker or blister to give the fabric a quilted or wadded effect. Some of the fabrics may have TINSEL YARNS worked into the pattern. Originally the fabric was made of cotton and used for men's vests; some cotton fabric is currently used for bedspreads. Now made of cotton, wool, or manufactured fibers. With manufactured fibers, one of the important recent uses has been for dress fabric. 3. A fabric that is made for use as upholstery with a mercerized cotton, ply-yarn warp and both manufactured fiber and heavy cotton ply-yarn filling, or it may have an all-manufactured fiber warp. Wherever the coarse filling yarn interlaces with the face fabric, it causes the remainder of the face to pucker, giving the quilted or blistered effect.”
