Over the weekend I found a book on Provencal Quilts and would love to try the technique called Boutis. Boutis consists of two layers of fabric which have been sewn together with a small running stitch and then stuffed with cotton yarn in different patterned areas. The antique quilts made with this technique are stunning - I can only begin to imagine all the time that went in to making them.
