ByOlga Balasa October 8, 2020May 10, 2023

In this sewing tutorial I want to talk about TRAPUNTO technique. What is trapunto? Trapunto is an Italian term for a style of quilting that creates designs in high relief. What trapunto means is that your quilt features great contrast in the loft of the design, giving it that lovely “embossed” appearance.
