Creative Grids Scallop Ruler
Creative Grids Scallop Ruler. Add that awe factor to any quilt by creating a scalloped border. This tool includes three sizes of scallops plus a corner unit. The small size is perfect for borders that are 2 to 5 inches in width. The medium scallop is ideal for 4 to 8 inch borders. And the large scallop works for borders up to 12 inches. Since you are creating this design element with paper templates, they can be spaced or overlapped as needed to fit any length of border. Hint: Design and mark the border before quilting so the scallop element can be showcased with quilting (and the machine quilter can attach straight sides to her frame). Use the trim tool to trim the curves. Then finish with bias binding.
