    Top quilt vs Under quilt price difference

    Why is it that top quilts seem to cost more than under quilts? I couldn't find an answer on this and I haven't made either. So I don't know how much work goes into either one. Just curious. Thanks.

    Top quilts are generally larger, and thus have more material and insulation in them.

    What he said. Also, a lot of the UQ's are not full length, hence adding to the "smaller than TQ's" ordeal.
