Shadow trapunto question
I've seen this a lot lately and am interested in trying shadow trapunto.
So what is the basic process and a good book/video recommendation? |
Or a good web site, please.
|
Our very own Geta wrote a book on the process and it is available for download for a nominal fee.
http://books.google.com/books?id=TTA5oMB-qbcC&q= She does drop dead gorgeous work and I understand her instructions are thorough and easy to follow. If you google "shadow Trapunto tutorial" you will get tons of hits. |
Geta's book is next on my wishlist. Her work is phenomenal.
I used Leah Day's process to learn this technique (she calls it "reverse shadow trapunto" as she does the trapunto slightly differently). She outlines the procedure in her Winter Wonderland pattern- available here: http://www.daystyledesigns.com/rever...owtrapunto.htm |
This is the book I've purchased, it also comes with a DVD. I've not read the other two books mentioned, I'm sure they are basically the same concept. http://softexpressions.com/software/books/Whitework.php
This is Karen Mctavish's method and theres tons of examples. |
I would buy geta's book, she does a lot of shadow trapunto, she is very knowledgable
|
I have some trapunto book and love them. ( Exploring Machine Trapunto By Hari Walner) (Trapunto By Machine By Hari Walner) & ( The Secrets of Elemental Quilting By Karen McTavish). I have learned alot from this books. They give you step by step lessons. They also have alot of patterns in them. The last book has a cd in it. I would love to buy geta's book but not paying that price yet
|
Someone posted picture of their trapunto blocks that they are doing. I believe she used the Winter Wonderland pattern and instructions from Leah Day's website.
|
Thank you for the info. I will be checking into this some more.
