“Trapunto Flowers”

The art of Trapunto has been around many years, adding a measure of beauty to quilts beyond beautiful color arrangements and quilting. You can find it primarily on heirloom quilts. My machine embroidery trapunto is a quick and “pain free” approach to creating trapunto quilts, using the embroidery machine.

What’s more my method of quilt-as-you-go creates a clean neat finish on both the front and the back sides. The scalloped border is a lovely finish to this beautiful heirloom inspired quilt.

“Connie Neer’s Trapunto Quilt”

Connie writes: “I have to hand it to you, you come up with some wonderful designs. I so enjoyed the Love Is Wall Hanging so had to buy your designs for the Trapunto one knowing it would be fun to do also.

I just love it and couldn't wait to get some pictures of it and send to you. Thanks for the great ideas you have.I will enter it in the local fairs later in the summer and let you know how I did with it.
Hugs,
Connie

In August Connie writes, “I entered the Machine Trapunto wallhanging in my two local fairs. At the one in Clarion County I got a FIRST on it and at the Dayton Fair I got a FIRSTand BEST OF SHOW. I told you your designs were magnificant. I know you deserve a part of those ribbons for your wonderful designs.”

All I can say is WOW!! Congratulations Connie!!

Jean Archer’s
“Trapunto Flowers Jacket”

Jean writes: “Hi Laura:

Attached are photos of the trapunto jacket I made from your designs. Thought you would like to see it. Great designs!

I used the medium size designs for the sleeves, back and lower front and the smallest size for the upper front. The jacket turned out to be a size 12. I had to let it be a bit larger across the back because of the scallops and making it work for the sleeve insertion. I normally wear a size 10. It is a short jacket, but works OK for me because I'm 5'6" and am short-waisted. I have to admit it worked best to sew the lining seams by hand in order to take advantage of the scallops, which I love.

I don't mind your sharing it at all. I have several of your design collections, they are all great!

Thank you for your kind words about this project. It was started in February and finished a week ago in time for the Sew Complete program, Clothing & Textile Advisors of Pierce Co., Washington. This is a volunteer group with sewing schools for low-income women throughout the year and summer sewing schools for children in the summer. We are among the volunteers who staff the Sewing Expo in Puyallup, Washington.

“Olita Saucer’s Quilt”

Olita arranged her flowers a little differently and it really draws the eye to the center of the quilt - a lovely layout.

Olita writes: “I really enjoyed making this. I used medium loft batting and a layer of pink Kona cotten instead of fleece. The only thing I would do different is use Steam a Seam to close the slit made for turning. I am an awful hand stitcher, and it would be faster. Every one at embroidery club really like it.”
