Trapunto
HOW I T WOR K S
A trapunto quilt block is specially digitized to
have an additional tackdown step to create
the puffy 3D look of traditional trapunto. Once
the batting is tacked, two additional layers of
batting are added and are treated as appliqué
so that there is an isolated 3D shape.
T I P : After the stippling step,
there are specially digitized
decorative bean stitches which
highlight the trapunto shape.
