This is basically bedcovering basics.
Bedspreads: Classic bedspreads cover the entire bed, including the mattress, box springs, and pillows. The top of the bedspread may be folded back to expose the pillows, or laid over the sleeping pillows. Decorating pillow shams are typically not used with a bedspread, but decorative pillows may be added.
Quilts: Although sometimes used as coverlets, quilts can also be used as blankets or as extra bedding folded at the foot of the bed. Durable machine-made quilts, appropriate for everyday use, are widely available.
Older quilts should not be exposed to direct sunlight and should be refolded frequently, using new folds, to avoid permanently creasing the fabric. Very fragile or antique quilts are better left off beds that are used daily.
Handmade and heirloom quilts deserve careful treatment. Special washing solutions are sold at quilt supply shops. Quilts can also be professionally dry-cleaned by a laundry that specializes in fine linens.
