Boutis is a cousin to quilting. It is a hand-sewn form of decorative needlework that uses a whole-cloth technique in which two layers of fabric are stitched together in decorative patterns into which loose batting and cording are then inserted. This kit from Marie Yolande makes a beautiful white bonnet. Diana taught this unique technique which has a sculptural surface in a beautiful pattern. The bonnet edge is accented with lace, and the ties are silk ribbon.
