布言布語

在網路上搜尋了一下白玉拼布White Quilt 或 Boutis Quilt的由來，給大家參考如下：

1・White Quilt

相傳是十字軍東征時，妻子為了怕心愛的丈夫出門打仗時天氣寒冷，因而手縫一件可以穿在戰袍下的保暖衣物。

它不同於一般拼布會利用多色彩的碎布拼接在一起，只選用單色素布（通常都以白色為主），舖棉後壓上圖案或刺繡，再於背面塞入棉花或白色棉線，以壓線的技法在素布上來表現圖案，呈現出立體的感覺。

此種技法後來被廣泛地用在製作手帕，床單，抱枕或被套等家居用品上。

２・Boutis Quilt

在17、18世紀時流傳在法國普羅旺斯地區的拼布（Quilting）――Boutis，
它的意思在布上雕刻美麗、優雅的圖案，就像“布雕“一樣。
一開始時只是充填棉線，
但是從18世紀後半期開始，就加入了充填綿花的技巧。
樣式非常的多變化及豐富，在歐洲受到好評因而成為普羅旺斯的傳統手工藝。

維基百科的解䆁

The term Provençal quilting, also known as boutis, refers to the wholecloth quilts done using a stuffing technique traditionally made in the South of France from the 17th century onwards. Boutis is a Provençal word meaning 'stuffing', describing how two layers of fabric are quilted together with stuffing sandwiched between sections of the design, creating a raised effect. The three main forms of the Provençal quilt are matelassage,

piqûre de Marseilles ( also known as Marseilles work or piqué marseillais), and boutis. These terms, along with trapunto are often debated and confused, but they are all forms of stuffed quilting associated with the region.
