	Broderie Perse: Lovely Applique of Persian Chintz Motifs
		Broderie perse is sometimes called chintz quilting as often flowers and other motifs from glazed chintz were used.
		Although the art of broderie perse was developed in England early in the eighteenth century, it wasn't long after American women were settled on these distant shores before they began to carry on the tradition of broderie perse.
		As we look at the evolution of broderie perse in America we find that the earlier examples were often done in a medallion pattern with an arrangement of flowers or other objects in the center often with circling flowers or vines.

		This was done in order to randomly decorate it or establish a pictorial scene upon the background.

		Flowers, flowering vines, birds and butterflies are usually found on broderie perse quilts.
		The designs are placed evenly on both left and right sides of the quilt with a larger motif in the center.

	Hand Quilting With Rayon Thread
