Have a great weekend.
Geta
Life is so good with me... I am married for over 15 years with the best husband in the world, I have a wonderful family.
Beside these, since 8 years ago I do all the day long what I most love to do : quilting ! I am a lucky girl ! Probably there are so many women in the world that love to quilt but don’t have enough time to do that !
I am so grateful ! And this is a sign of my gratitude: a small sample of my shadow trapunto quilts I want to give to one of my readers! As you know, I love this technique !
For those who don’t know how this little quilt is made: the top layer is organza, the white motifs are made from batting and under these two layers there are other three layers ( like in a normal quilt ).
Viata e asa buna cu mine ! Sunt casatorita de peste 15 ani cu cel mai sot din lume, am o familie minunata. In plus, de peste 8 ani, cat e ziua de lunga, fac ceea ce imi place cel mai mult sa fac: quilting ! Sunt o norocoasa ! Probabil sunt atatea femei in lume care adora quiltingul dar nu au suficient timp sa quiltuiasca !
Sunt foarte recunoscatoare vietii ! Si iata un semn al recunostintei mele: aceasta mostra de quilt shadow trapunto pe care vreau s-o ofer cadou unuia dintre cititorii mei. Dupa cum stiti, imi place mult aceasta tehnica.
Stratul de deasupra este organza, motivele albe sunt din vatelina, iar sub ele se afla alte 3 straturi (ca la orice quilt).
I didn’t have enough fabric to make bias binding so I used a straight binding. Because of that, the edges tend to lift up and give the quilt this nice look !
N-am avut material suficient sa croiesc bindingul pe bie, asa ca l-am croit drept. Din cauza asta, marginile tind sa se ridice si dau quiltului un aspect foarte frumos.

If you want to win this little quilt, please leave a comment at the end of this post until Friday night(Romania's hour). You will be entered in a drawing. I will randomly peak a winner in the next weekend. Please assure there is a way I can contact you. And I would like to know where are you from !
And if you find something interesting (maybe in my tutorials ) on my blog, would you want to share it with your readers ? Maybe you can add a link on your blog ? I would certainly be happy for it !
Have a wonderful week and Good luck !

Geta, I just love your shadow trapunto, and the colors you've used in the piece for the give-away are just gorgeous. :) I visit your blog for inspiration, and I also made a point of searching out your quilts when I went to Houston last fall -- they're even more beautiful in person than in your photos. I'd just love to win the give-away. :)
I am a newer reader to your blog and I just love it! I also am a fan of shadow trapunto and LOVE your quilts! Please enter me in your contest. I am eagerly awaiting your shadow trapunto book!

Hai Geta,
I just love your colorful quilt. a tutorial of your techniques will be a great help for new people in quilting.
Fantastic work. Every day I look in the blog. I would like to shadow trapunto.
congratulations
Geta..how did I miss this yesterday? You know how much I admire your work. I will post a link on my blog about your giveaway (even though that lowers my chances of winning...LOL). I'm already a proud owner of one of your pieces so I shouldn't be greedy.
Ca norocasa care are deja doua din miniaturile tale minunate nu prea am dreptul sa particip,dar tin sa-ti spun ca ma bucura mult sa vad frumusetile pe care le faci cu atata maiestrie.
I do love your quilts! I would like to win.
Hugs from Hungary!
25 de comentarii si se mai aduna inca...Extraordinar! Geta iti tin de pe-acum pumnii pentru carte si iti spun eu ca va fi A HUGE SUCCESS.

That is a beautiful mini quilt! Your work is wonderful! I don't have a blog to mention you in, but I do like to read blogs and find interesting tutorials...I am interested in your quilted bag and the kaleidoscope technique. I am from northern Maine in the USA and it is still cold and snowy here. We won't see green grass till the middle of May....winter is so long here!
Your little quilt is so beautiful. I love the colors and quilting. Please enter my name in your giveaway.
This is the second time I have been to your blog. I am going to make your little bag for my daughter who has started crocheting. Thanks for the tutorial.
We live in Central Florida, and the weather is beautiful.

Toate quilturile tale sunt adevarate opere de arta si nu cred ca exista cineva care nu ar vrea in casa lui asa ceva. Eu vreau! In primul rand pentru ca stiu unde il voi aseza si apoi pentru ca vazandu-l de aproape sper sa pot fura putin din maiestria ta. Multumesc pentru cuvintele frumoase cu care m-ai incurajat!

Of course I would love to win it as I just love all that you do. Congrats on your anniversary too !!
How absolutely lovely! Thank you for the chance.

I very much admire your trapunto.
I have a Ricky Timms DVD which I am working through and am just past his comments on Trapunto.
It is nice to meet someone from your country. I have had visits from your country to my blog but never any comments that I know of.
I too am having a bag giveaway.
A one yard bag adapting a Lazy girl pattern in colors of your choice. I would be pleased if any of you would like to enter. It will not be perfect but will be the best that I can do and I do not mind posting overseas. I wanted to get 60 replies to link with my 600 posts which is what the give away celebrates.
Thank you from Australia
