At Anita Goodesign, we are always exploring innovative techniques to elevate our designs and bring you fresh and exciting projects. In our latest collection, we have ventured into uncharted territory by combining two distinctive techniques: free standing embroidery and trapunto. The result? A stunning collection of Padded Christmas Ornaments that will captivate your imagination and add a touch of elegance to your holiday decor.
Free standing embroidery has been a beloved technique among embroidery enthusiasts for many years. It involves stitching intricate designs on water-soluble stabilizer, creating delicate and intricate motifs that can stand on their own. This technique allows for remarkable detail and adds a three-dimensional aspect to the embroidery.
On the other hand, trapunto is a technique traditionally associated with quilting. It involves adding extra padding or loft to specific areas of the design, creating a raised effect that adds texture and dimension. While trapunto is commonly used in quilting projects, we have taken a bold step by incorporating it into these charming Christmas ornaments.
By combining free standing embroidery with trapunto, we have created a truly unique and eye-catching collection. Each ornament in the collection showcases intricate and festive designs that come to life with the added dimension of trapunto. Imagine delicate snowflakes, twinkling stars, and enchanting holiday scenes, all brought to life with a touch of padding that adds depth and visual interest.
