FINISHED Disappearing 9patch with scallops /Terminado el quilt con ondas

In case you want to know my last post here is about how this quilt starts and allow me show you how is finished. I'm happy enough how it turns this new Summer Quilt.
I have been busy Summer so far , no complain on the contrary !!! I have done several customers orders with my Linen curtains , making some of my Linen blinds which I like so much ..,
therefore my 'Plum sweet' had to wait until weekend to be finished...I jumped my sewing machine as I could...and here it is , nothing better for me that finish a project ...in this case a big project which is a King size quilt..
Hope you like it

**************

Aqui  explicaba como empezo este Quilt, una especie de tutorial para que podais tener una idea (mas) de como hacer la terminacion en ondas , nada dificil os lo aseguro. Estoy contenta de como se ve  terminado, Ha tenido que esperar una semana pues he estado muy ocupada haciendo presupuestos y pedidos de estores de Lino, lo cual me gusta mucho tambien..no me quejo , pero en cuanto he tenido un momento libre salte a la maquina de coser y lo termine..no me gusta nada tener algo de quilt pendiente...aunque ya estoy con nuevos proyectos en mi cabeza...ya sabes a que me refiero !!
En esta ocasion es un quilt bastante grande , lo vereis sobre mi cama de 1m 50, son 2 m2 de quilt. Espero que os guste

TUTORIAL Disappearing 9Patch with scalloped edges/ 9Patch quilt terminado con ondas

Disappearing 9Patch Block with  2 Charm Packs 'Plum Sweet ' fabrics by Blackbird designs.
As usual I don't want to talk about Tutorial, it seems arrogant to me, such pattern it is known enough, but
what I want, looking for my own design, is to explain  what I do for sashing my blocks.

First of all I arranged my blocks into different layout, having all of them 4 new-born patch as a result of cutting the 9P, they are combined as a 4 - 5"P in a frame and secondly the most used as a X's block.
Laying blocks : 3 rows by 3 columns alternating in between  them : 9 B in total .
 ************************
En una base de 9 patch , ya conoceis suficientemente como hacer 'desaparecer y obtener algo bien distinto'
hay muchos tutoriales en la web, lo que me parece muy util y queria resaltar, como enmarcar de forma facil y rapida cada bloc, lo aprendi aqui  , en el resultado de los 2 disenios obtenidos al cortar los bloques de 9patch  y emmarcardos solo dos lados del bloque cuadrado en blanco  .Al final he obtenido una sensacion de bloques cayendo al cololcarlos de forma desigual..mirad las fotos..se entiende mejor.

design Block 1
design Block 2

I decided sashing each block in 2 sides as I learned from Jenny from the Missoury Star Co. here ,
I like so much her know-how on make it easier and how she explains. In case you never seen before would be interesting.
By cutting a 3" wide and long WOF strip ( white in my case) , over it lay down one block behind other in chain, you can stack and sew at a time along the strip to speed this up .
After sew all of them in the strip, trim leftover intro the measure of your block square.
Making the same for the second side ..sashing in chain , you will have each block with 2 sash corner.
Playing with ..I didn't disposse all the same  and come out as they go down..funny !
Have a look :
**************************

Corte una tira de 3" de ancho por el ancho total de la tela
y fui cosiendo en cadena uno tras otro bloc.....corte al final a la medida del lado .
En el segundo lado del cuadrado lo mismo

Sewing Face to face over strip/  Cara a cara sobre la tira 

    Segunda tira lo mismo , respetando misma posicion siempre...es un trabajo en cadena :-))




  Mismo resultado en cada bloque /  Each block has same white corners.


  One sashed corner is first to the left hand right up , second to the left down..alternate , second row rotate.
  Estan dispuestos rotando , una vez arriba a la derecha, el siguiente abajo dcha.



All have been unified with a narrow white band 2.5".


And the second TUTO here is about scalloped edges (you can find also here)and I want to show you an easy and cheap way to do that As usual by using tissue paper as a pattern and a plate as a 'ruler' .
I would make a scalloped edges of 11" width around all (4 sides)
After add 12" of flower print fabric from same design...I have placed  tissue paper over the print frame and by using a dish I drawn the ripples, smoothing in between them for easy binding.
Better take a look, is easy and measures are in the pictures....

    8 " diameter

  Traced a diagonal to place  better corner ...




And now....before to place template  and to cut on fabric ...you should enhanced in my case by FMQ
meandering , or whatever you want ....




 About 70 " width and square Quilt.



IMPORTANT : Do NOTstrongly mark the waves .





Coming soon the binding...I will show you next week.../ Proxima semana el bies para terminar.

Happy week and thanks for your interest on my work/ Nos vemos pronto las colegas del viernes !
