Your quilt is beautiful you did a fantastic job quilting that
I love trapunto. I have done the type where you use 2 layers of light weight white or cream fabric with batting behind both layers of fabric. Quilting is done with pearl cotton then you pull pastel colored yarn between the two layers of fabric inside quilted design it is called shadow quilting you might want to try it sometime since you like trapunto.

That video showed shadow quilting, but used a piece of lace between the top and the batting. I thought that looked very interesting too.

That is very well done. How many hours do you have in the quilting?

It really is a masterpiece.
