More Trapunto by Machine. I took classes from the teacher about 10 years ago.
Great technique.

Thanks for sharing, this is on my to-do list!

Nice tute...you're right...trapunto adds a "WOW" factor!

OK, Patti, I am just seeing your post here for the first time... dah... a little late. It looks doable to me. Thank you very much. You explain things so well, and then, on top of that, you are so patient with questions. I may be back once I try it. :-D

Sure Linda! Hope you give it a go..its not hard, but it is very impressive when you add it to your project.

Leah Day on daystyle.com also has this idea for trapunto. Have used hers, including the water soluable thread and it is very pretty, especially after you quilt around it.

Sandpat.....LOVE your idea of using Trapunto in the corners of a quilt. GREAT TUTORIAL!!!!

These are my first trys at this technique. These were applique patterns. I didn't do any stippling on Sun Bonnet Sue, but tried McTavishing on the bottom right picture. The top pic was with my cell phone, so not real clear.

Trapunto is so much fun, a lot of close work, but well worth the try. DEFINITELY GIVE THIS A TRY!

Congratulations! Keep it up Linda!

Linda...that looks great!! I'm so happy you like it and obviously were successful with the technique!

Thanks so much for the tutorial, nice and understandable. Another thing to put on my to-do list.

BATIKQLTR that trapunto'd Sunbonnet Sue would look fabulous alternated with regular appliqued Sues for a quilt. Is that what you did with her? Please show a picture.
