Trapunto Anyone?



Trapunto is a form of quilting. 
I came upon this at a local thrift shop today.
It's in excellent condition.
A nice example of Trapunto.


That's an old piece of wood it was stapled to.
I'm guessing it may have been framed once upon a time.
It would have looked great in my dining room, before it was my Dining Room...

Really bad picture!
The details of the back-



Even the fish got stuffed!
You can really see how the stuffing makes the deer have depth.


Here's what it all looks like now.



These deer are hoping to find their "forever" home.
Right now they're spending some time in Etsy Shop.
