My First Shot at Trapunto
2 Attachment(s)
So happy with this - my first real shot at trapunto. I wanted to do a few test runs before I do a big ol' quilt. I'm really happy with the results. I got a little bit of knotting and realized after a way I could have made it easier on myself. Lesson learned!
All I can say is that polyester batting as earned it's place back in my quilts! ;) |
What a great job you did with this, I can hardly wait to see what you do with "a big ol' quilt"!
|
It's beautiful! Great job - good luck with your big quilt but it doesn't look like you need it!
|
Wow! I'm really impressed. I've never tried it because it looks hard to do.......! You certainly have the right stuff!
|
Thank you guys so much! A1penny - it's not too terribly difficult, but really time consuming. The hardest part so far has probably been controlling those small stitches around the trapunto design. This has really opened up a whole new door for me though, IDEAS ABOUND!!! ;)
|
Wow, awesome!!!!
|
So nice! Congratulations on giving this a try and doing so well at it. I admire it, but have avoided giving it try.

This turned out fabulous. I love to hear and see the results when a chance is taken to push into a new concept in quilting and everything.
I also admire people that can use white. My home doesn't do white well! Black dog:D peace |

Finished! It's still wet from removing the marking pen and needs bound but I'm so happy! It's not perfect, there are definitely a lot of things I will do differently next time...but thrilled to have a new skill under my belt! Now to have fun and play with it!!! Thanks for all the kind comments and encouragment, you all are so great!!!
|
Your sample turned out awesome! Look forward to seeing the quilt you plan on doing this on!
