Answer

QUILT

A quilt is a multi layered textile traditionally composed of three layers: a decorative top, batting or wadding for insulation, and a backing material. These layers are stitched together through a process called quilting. The word comes from the Latin culcita meaning stuffed sack or mattress, and quilts have been a cherished part of many cultures for centuries, often serving as family heirlooms.

Strategy Tip

Words starting with Q are rare in Wordle, but when they appear, remember that Q is almost always followed by U. If you spot a Q in your guesses, try placing U right after it to quickly narrow down your options.
