Stitch Quilting
How to Set and Quilt Block A
Adjustment of the quilt: Press of the blocks and place them on the bed to get the final effect before them together. If not cover the whole bed area, you have to do something about it: (1) If the quilt is not wide enough, the strips of material can be white or colored be used. Maybe you have enough material to reconstruct the left and add an extra row of blocks. (2) If the rug is too wide, use it as deeply as possible a seam in sewing blocks together. Be careful not to take the seams in the design of the blocks.
Near the border check to see if it is correct for the width. It should be in balance with the design, and not add or subtract from the main part of the decorative blanket. As the survey blocks laid in bed, remember that are not yet sewn together and the seams when they are finished, each has access to the 1 / 4 inches. This affects the installation of the border, both its length and breadth.
If you are satisfied with the blocks, and measures of the border, proceed with the configuration of the blocks together. The best way is to unite all the blocks in a row, sewing a seam 1 / 4 inches. Continue joining blocks in a row at a time. This should be done by hand, especially if you are sewing reconstructed block. It is easier to maintain the exact pattern and paired with hand corner instead of on the machine. Sew the rows of blocks may be performed by the machine when turning corners, before cloudy weather along with other matters. You may like to baste the seams long before using the machine.
During the sewing strip of the border, starting with the shorter pieces on top and bottom first. Baste them before sewing. Baste the pieces from the side edges point on.
The blockade of the blanket: The term "blocking" means keeping the straight edges on all sides of the quilt so it will be a rectangle perfect when finished. The term applies to divisions of the Quilt Blocks, and also to the border, so the blocking process is a continuous process from beginning to end.
At the start, blocking will help if you have cut the pieces and blocks according to the warp and weft threads into the material. Compliance with this rule eliminates the tendency to wrinkle. It is useful, if your material tears easily, to boot strips the width of the blocks, then separated into individual blocks. For facilitate cutting, drawing a thread where your scissors will need to cut.
Pull straight edges of the block with your fingers and pin the corners to the ironing board to keep them rigidly in place. Cover the block with a damp cloth and press with a hot iron. Do not iron the fabric dry, but more use to steam in place. Press the edges until they are perfectly straight and equality measures. The center is pressed past.
It's a good idea to push their blocks before that the design is attached hereto, after the seam is complete. This is also true of the border and any section of the quilt. This means a lot to press, but it ensures greater precision in the final measure of all units. After the quilt is set at a time, will end before the lock is ready to be quilted to the lining and back.

What is the correct way to do Cross Stitch, stitches in the embroidery?
I'm working on quilt blocks. All are done in cross stitch on cotton fabric of polyethylene. I needed to know what is the correct way to do the stitching? Does it really matter if the points are in all points? Am looking for everyones input. Thank you.
There are two basic ways to work a cross stitch. One is the work of each item separately, first / then \. So The following point: / then \. The other way is to make a whole row of ////////// and then travel to the crossing of them: \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \. Any works, or successful, or it is correct. You can also line up vertically instead of horizontally. The rear looks better if You Choose one method or other and stick to it. Attractive back are highly valued by embroiderers. The more formal cross-stitch work is that all points are in the points, as you say. Some people prefer to work in a more informal style that crosses not play in the corners – I think it looks ridiculous, like cross-stitch rows are quite formal nature.
