Shadow trapunto quilts- duplicating quilt designs

Do you duplicate the quilts you like a lot? Like making one more version, maybe with other type of prints, or other color palette, but keeping the same pattern?

It happened to me only a few times (but I do have a list of quilts I would like to make again someday).

Here is one example. You would be tempted to say it is not the same pattern- but it is.

batting is cut away in reverse!

  1. Thanks, Geta, for a reminder about Shadow Trapunto. I know I've been following you for quite awhile and yet this post escaped me. I've made a note of it now; I appreciate that you reminded us of it. Maybe, someday, I can try out this process. You make the best things!!!

  2. When I first saw your Shadow Trapunto quilts I felt intimidate.It seamed to me that I need a life of quilting to do this.
    After I bought your book I understand so much and I realized from your detailed written and illustrated instructions that all I need is patience and exercise for an accurate quilting.
    Thank you for this reminder!
