Quilts are not knitted. Quilts are sewn. A knitted
blanket/throw/whatever is called an afghan. Check Wikipedia for "quilt"
and "afghan blanket" and you will see the difference.

Do you mean knitted blankets or do you mean that they should be
doubled and have a filling of sorts ?

A covering to have a decorative purpose. Like a patchwork quilt out of
fabric.

That would be like a knitted throw or afghan, not a quilt. A quilt has
a backing, a padding, and a front that is cut pieces of fabric made into
a particular design.
