The layers are then stitched or bonded together using various techniques, including quilting, tufting, or thermal bonding, to create the desired quilted pattern and structure. Finally, the finished quilted textile product may undergo additional finishing processes, such as trimming, dyeing, or printing, to meet specific customer requirements.
