Here I am again! Sorry I been missing so long, but No or there has been rest (almost) for me, first completing the quilt show you today, while advancing with the Dear Jane I do with Georgina (and we 40 blocks !!!), then smaller odd jobs to give away ... in short, super-busy. We keep the s options for mounting the quilt I made with my bali pop (by the way, has come a new collection you can see in Fat Quarter Shop ). Well, I show you some pictures of options and is qu m and occurred, but ultimately not used:
After deciding which would be the final design, I started thinking what would be the most appropriate edge to give the quilt the look. After giving 300 laps ... I decided to try something new: a Celtic border. Never before had I experienced with this technique and I thought a good exercise to learn (as I am self-taught, I take my work to develop new techniques). So using the computer (to make it completely symmetrical I used AutoCad, you know ... professional bias), I drew a border that I liked and moved to the fabric was sewn into a frame using the tracing paper Chacopaper Clover (I would recommend going really well):
Here you can see the border drawn (in my case printed) on paper and held the edge with pins. At this point only a matter of sliding the tracing paper beneath the ground to transfer and review over the reason for it is highlighted on the web (for review can SUSAR a pencil but I use a pointed wooden stick-the used to thread the meat on skewers, because I prefer not to paint on the patterns):
So, with the strong mark on the web, I set out to give life to the fusible tape of Clover (I use a color bias degraded agree with the central quilt) . To apply the bias is going great the Clover miniplancha of all you have insurance.
Once "stuck the bias" with the plate, held it to the hidden stitch fabric and thread multicolor, here are some samples of the result:
Finally, I set up the quilt with wadding and back and the whole machine quilting with the help of the double leg dragging. For padding the center "review" the seams of the strips of bali pop and edge following the outline quilting (interior and exterior) of bias, and the areas left without bias, the quilted with thread the same color as the background using the same basis as for the border but this time without bias. Here is the final result:
