Why does a down quilt with cotton fabric rustle?

For down products, special down and tightly knit cotton fabrics are used. The fabric manufacturing process includes calendering that completes the tightness of the fabric (calendering is an industrial pressing process). For this reason, the fabric rustles slightly when new, and this is typical for a down quilt. The rustling is reduced with wear and washings.
