The impact of the colorful embroidery and 69 different appliquéd birds is enough to distinguish Teruko Uchiya's quilt. Then you look closer and see the quilt is taken to another level by the delicate hand quilting every 5mm.

Hamorebi Sunlight Through the Leaves by Teruko Uchiya of Yurihonjo, Akita, Japan won Honorable MentionBalanced Piecing and Appliqué, sponsored by Quilters Select, at the Houston International Quilt Festival 2019.

I put money on a bet that the batt is silk. How would you get that tiny detail otherwise? Gorgeous!
