I’m not used to repeat project pattern. I’ve done it in some exceptional cases as the “GrowingLeave Cowl”, and I’ve done it this time with the “Chromium Star Blanket”. A blanket for a new special star that is coming in the following months. A special one!

La manta de Victoria

Finally, I
can show you Victoria’s quilt! You’ve already seen the front panel I used here.
But little Victoria is the perfect finishing touch. Don’t you think?

Nueva manta infantil en proyecto

I’m starting a new baby blanket with a panel y I bought in the 6th Patchwork Fair of Solidarity. If you live near Seville I heartily recommend it to you! Once again, I’m using my quilting safety pins for the quilting phase. Due to the lack of time I have, I’ve decided to use the sewing machine for quilting the blanket, let’s see if I find some time this weekend to carry on with the job!

La mantita de dinosaurios de Naoise
One of the
few things I’ve been working on during the Christmas time was this baby quilt.
I sewed it for a friends’ child, Naoise, who was born in September. His parents
are now living in South Arabia so we can’t see each other quite often. Due to
the lack of time I choose an easy project, with a lovely fabric full of funny
and cute dinosaurs!!

Manta infantil de animales para Martín

I had clear
Martin’s present since I knew he was coming. When looking for the right fabrics
to use, this animal piece just fitted perfectly with his parents’ personality
and the way they’ll raise him. I've already showed you parts of the blanket in this post
talking about a bias tape tutorial and in this “work in progress” post. Today I
can finally show you the final result. I hope you like it.

Una manta para una princesa
Finally, I
can show you little Silvia’s quilt. Last week I was able to know this two-month
old little baby and give her the quilt I made just for her. I hope she’ll enjoy
as much as her mother told me her brother Martín did, and already does!

Un bies que no está al bies
2) Planchamos por la mitad toda la tira.
3) Colocamos el bies a ras del borde de la manta, la parte con los bordes de la tira con el borde de la manta y la parte de la doblez de la tira para dentro (¡vaya lío de bordes! ¿Se entiende?).
4) Ojo con las esquinas, tienen que quedar colocadas de la siguiente manera:
5) Hilvanamos todo el perímetro. En las esquinas no llegamos con el hilván hasta el final. Luego pasamos un pespunte por todo el perímetro. En las esquinas tenemos que coser hasta el hilván en uno de los lados (de nuevo sin llegar al final) y hacer el pespunte hasta el final en el otro lado.
7) Después recortamos los sobrantes de guata y trasera a la distancia necesaria para hacer el bies del grosor que queremos, en mi caso he dejado un centímetro más o menos...
8) Doblamos el bies hacia la trasera y sujetamos con alfileres. Poco a poco vamos cosiendo el borde del bies a la tela con puntada escondida. Sujetad bien las esquinas para que queden en su sitio.
9) ¡Y por fin el "bies no-bies" está terminado!
Mucho más sencillo que el "bies al bies" y con resultados parecidos en este tipo de proyectos.
De todas maneras os debo un minitutorial para cortar "bies al bies".
Y en breve espero poder enseñaros la mantita terminada, ¡que es una locura!
¡Buen fin de semana!
Sometimes is
not easy to find the perfect bias tape for a project: the color you like is not
available, for example. That’s why doing it yourself is a great idea. In this
case, I didn’t need to cut it diagonally so the job was even easier. Here you
have the step-by-step tutorial I’ve made of the process in case it’s useful for
customize in an original way your projects.
