Trapunto is a technique of adding extra dimension to quilting and applique by stuffing certain areas of the quilt. An additional layer of batting may be used or yarn may be threaded into channels of quilting for a raised look.

What is the difference between English and Trapunto quilting?

English quilting typically involves a technique where layers of fabric are stitched together with a focus on intricate designs and patterns, often using a technique called "tacking" to hold the layers in place without extensive padding. In contrast, Trapunto quilting is a specialized method that creates a raised, three-dimensional effect by adding extra padding to specific areas of the quilt, resulting in a more textured appearance. While both styles emphasize decorative stitching, Trapunto is distinct for its emphasis on creating depth through the use of additional filling materials.

You want to know about tripunto stitch?

I believe you are referring to the trapunto stitch. In Italian trapunto means "to embroider," and in Latin it means "to prick with a needle." English and American quilters usually call the technique stuffed work. It is a stitch that is placed on a fabric backed with batting, so that the resulting design looks stuffed.
