Hi there Cuties! As I had asked about Trapunto Quilting yesterday....thought to give it a try ( I am not at all a quilter by the way)

I looked around for designs to be done on the embroidery machine in the hoop but didnt find anything I loved!
Then I searched among the designs I had to see if anything would work with this technique just to try!
Well here it is what I did....not perfect but not bad I guess! The poofy design looks good! Needed to stipple around the raised part of the design but will need to learn and practice that first so I just filled with lines for now :)
Tried to get pics so that you all can see the 'poofiness' ;)
If any of you have done this please do share!

Tried 1 more....with a little different method this time! Just the design on the embroidery machine on fabric only rest all done on sewing machine! This turned out more poofy :)

Looks good. Did you add a second layer of batting to get the rise and cut it out before the lines? How about echo quilting instead of stipple or lines. Keep us up to date. THIS is very pretty.

Well....as this was just a trial and I wanted to get it done on an embroidery machine I just hooped a cutaway and sandwiched a high loft polyester batting with the top fabric then embroidered the design!
After that cut away the excess batting....pull away the cutaway stabiliser. ...then added layer of fleece (as I didnt have any other batting) and the back fabric and finished the lines and outlining of the brown design on the sewing machine!
I hope I haven't confused you :)...lol!

I have been thinking of trying it too. That is the way I would do it. No confusion at all. Thanks for the information.

These have turned out absolutely perfect Fatima. You are very adventurous in your ability to try anything. Keep on trying as this is the way you learn. There are always more than one way to try something and you've proven that by these examples. Well done, love Chris
