Interior items with quilted texture will bring a feeling of warmth and comfort to the house, which is especially important in the coming autumn season.

When you look at quilted furniture, you immediately recall a soft warm blanket, in which you just want to wrap yourself up on dank evenings. Well, autumn is coming, there will be more and more such evenings, and it is better to meet them fully armed, with a blanket, and furnishings with real or carefully simulated quilted surfaces.

The quilted texture is associated primarily with solid classics (in memory of former popularity in Victorian England). However, nowadays, marked by a revolution in ideas about the interior, the quilting has spread to postmodern design objects. Earlier, the dark side of the color spectrum was “fixed” to this texture, but now all restrictions have been removed: the factories are not embarrassed to produce flirty bright pink, light green, blue-blue sofas and armchairs with a quilted surface.

Such "chubby" furniture seems and is soft, so that the place for her is where family members and guests often gather. She just wants to sit on it, and the living room with such decor will be the main room in the house. We must be prepared for the fact that the households will actually move here. This can be avoided by highlighting each on a personal quilted sofa. And if someone is so carried away that will require more, please: now they decorate coffee tables, dressers, and even cabinets under the sink with quilts (in pandan you can pick out faucets with porcelain "quilts"). The degree of quivering can vary from light, barely perceptible, to almost punched through, pickled. The second is more spectacular. Especially when the stitches are decorated with studs, buttons (this technique even has its name - capitone) and crystals.
