World Quilt Competition XVII: Best of Country, New Zealand - "Arum Bouquets" by Anne Yeo. Hand appliqued, machine pieced, machine quilted. Anne writes: My original inspiration was a bouquet of lilies in a church. This formed the bouquet in the central diamond. The 8 other bouquets were designed to fit the 8 corners formed by the squares and diamonds of the quilt layout. Techniques used are hand needleturn applique, machined embroidery, domestic machine quilted, hand couched fine gold cord around the ribbons. I feel that this design and quilt layout work very well together.
