Do you Want to add magnificence & sophistication to your quilting?

In Basic Trapunto, Bev McClune reveals her secrets to successful and uncomplicated trapunto in an enjoyable two hour DVD that will leave you with a quilt that will dazzle and amaze.

Trapunto, sometimes referred to as stuffed quilting or raised quilting, is a long-established quilting technique that can make a simple piece of white fabric come alive. The technique of Trapunto creates the glorious French Provencal wedding quilts – these whole cloth quilts are traditionally all white for the marriage bed. Although not relegated to white only fabric, the texture created is the main feature in Trapunto… not the fabric.

Bev guides you through the fundamental techniques of simple trapunto, manipulating cloth with needle, thread and batting to add exquisite accents to your quilts. She demonstrates exactly how you can achieve a diamond grid with corded trapunto. Bev shares her secrets, in a manageable quilt-as-you-go project.
