Seminole patchwork tutorial- learn how to enhance a design with rainbow fabric.
I promise to add dimensions to the strips in the directions below.. but I wanted to at least post pictures for you to see... More soon, I promise! I have this little side business... I make custom kitty quilts. It sounds funny, but they are now all over the US and the world. Last summer I made this one for my girl, Jasmine. I love graphic designs, and Seminole patchwork has always held a certain appeal. I sewed about 7 pieced bands, but used only 5 in her quilt. Here are some pictures of how three of them are put together. This is a traditional Seminole band. The black and white strips are about 2" wide, the turquoise one is 1-1/2". After the strips are sewin together, they are cut crosswise into 1-1/2" pieces. Then every other one is rotated, and the strips are set at a 45 degree angle to make the design shown below. This next band is not a traditional Seminole design

....Nasty bugs have stopped play this last week... again. One of the casualties was a weekend retreat, which unfortunately I had to cancel.So there's not been much crafting going on. This is a piece I made around three weeks ago when the Lovely Ladies from Quiltesk came to show us Seminole patchwork.It measures around 16x28 inches. I wasn't too keen on the wall hanging design they brought along so as usual I did my own thing...one day I will follow the instructions I used scraps of Kaffe Fassett fabrics and added a few embellishments and a little free style quilting. and there was some fabulous news... The Quiltesk ladies are taking over our one and only local patchwork shop...a shop which previously I had avoided... now I just have to learn to drive out of my postcode!(sad but true... I hate driving!)

O seminole é uma das técnicas do patchwork. Emendando tiras de tecido podemos formar lindos barrados. LOSANGOS: 1. Cortar 3 tiras de 5cm x 50cm, (sendo que duas devem ter a mesma cor) e emenda-las. 2. Cortar tiras de 5 cm. 3. Organizar as tiras como no desenho abaixo e uni-las com costura. 4. Refilar o trabalho. 5. Cortar 2 tiras de 5 cm, dobra-las ao meio. Fixar nas extremidades da faixa de losangos. ZIG-ZAG 1. Cortar quatro faixas de 4,5cm x 50cm e emenda-las. 2. Refilar as laterais. 3. Dividir em quatro blocos iguais (~13cm). 4. Faça dois montinhos de dois blocos (um por cima do outro) e corte o primeiro monte na diagonal para a esquerda e o outro na diagonal para a direita. 5. Montar as tiras como a foto abaixo. Costurar. Formarão dois seminoles diferentes. 6. Refilar o trabalho. Fazer o acabamento como no seminole anterior. CORAÇÃO 1. Cortar 1 faixa de 4,5cm em tecido claro + 1 faixa de 4,5cm em tecido vermelho + 1 faixa de 7,5cm em tecido claro. Unir as três faixas na mesma sequencia. Passar a tira formada com o ferro, virando a costura para um só lado. Cortar a tira em faixas de 4cm. Reservar este BLOCO 1 2. Cortar 2 faixas de 5cm em tecido claro e 1 faixa de 7cm em tecido vermelho. Costurar as três faixas, sendo que a vermelha ficará no meio. Passar esta tira de tecido com o ferro, virando a costura para um só lado. Cortar a tira faixas de 4,5cm. Reservar este BLOCO 2 . 3. Montar o trabalho: Unir as faixas cortadas de duas em duas, sendo uma do Bloco 1 e uma do Bloco 2, como mostra a foto. Depois unir as peças de duas tiras, como mostra a foto. 4. Após a união de todas as peças, refile seu trabalho, faça duas tiras para o acabamento como foi explicado no primeiro trabalho desta postagem.

Sometimes, once a quilt top is finished, all we want to do is add a plain border or two. Many times they frame the quilt top very nicely, but a pieced border can add something special. Pieced borde…

This technique is too fun not to explore it more, so I present you Part II of the Seminole Piecing tutorial. You find Part I here. Yesterday someone asked me if this technique works with ombre fabric. Of course, but you will not have such variety in color compared with a rainbow fabric. Many ombre […]
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lutfxjSk4mQ ATENÇÃO: Refazendo esse passo-a-passo, verifiquei que coloquei medida menor que a necessária para compor o barrado para um pano de prato de 50 cm de largura. Nas tiras onde havia postado a medida de 35 cm, por favor substitua por 46 cm. Peço desculpas às amigas que passaram por aqui e colocaram em pratica esse seminole, tendo porém que aumentar uma faixa extra para completar o trabalho. Novamente peço desculpas pelo transtorno que posso ter acarretado a alguem. As medidas que seguem abaixo já estão corrigidas. Bom trabalho. Barrado em Seminole Material necessário: Tecido de sacaria ( de preferência p/pintura - uso da Estilotex ) - 70 cm x 50 cm 3 tecidos diferentes - 100% algodão ( ver medida abaixo ). Evite usar tecidos com estampa xadrez. Não dá bom resultado pelo corte ser em ângulo de 60º. Opte por estampas florais miúdas, texturizados, poás, etc... Viés estreito - 1 m Bordado ingles - 1,10 m Linha de retrós Alfinetes Tesoura Máquina de costura Foram usados materiais específicos de patchwork - placa de corte, régua e cortador para facilitar o trabalho, porém na falta destes, um esquadro, régua e tesoura dão o mesmo resultado. Passo-a-Passo: Lavar os tecidos. Os de algodão encolhem e podem soltar tinta. Margem de costura usada: 0,75 cm Cortar: 1 tira tecido nº 1 ( verde estampado ) - 6 cm x 40 cm 1 tira tecido nº 2 ( vermelho manchado ) - 6 cm x 40 cm 2 tiras tecido nº 3 ( cru com poá ) - 6 cm x 40 cm 1 tira tecido nº 1 ( verde estampado ) - 6 cm x 46 cm 1 tira tecido nº2 ( vermelho manchado ) - 6 cm x 46 cm 2 tiras de tecido ( cru com poá ) - 6 cm x 46 cm 1 - Costure as tiras uma à uma, formando duas faixas, as de 40 cm e as de 46 cm. Afaste 2,5 cm uma tira da outra antes de emendá-las. 2 - Passe pelo avesso, cada uma dessas faixas, com as costuras viradas num mesmo sentido. 3 - Posicione a régua de corte a 60º com relação a uma das costuras da faixa de 40 cm e corte os excessos da margem. 4 - Vire a faixa e fatie 5 tiras de 6 cm. 5 - Repita o processo com a faixa de 46 cm - corte 6 fatias. 6 - As fatias ficarão com os cortes invertidos. 7 - Costure as fatias duas a duas e depois una-as até formar o barrado todo. 8 - Corte o tecido claro deixando 2 cm de largura. O barrado todo deverá ficar com 16,5 cm. 9 - Passe uma costura em zigue-zague na volta toda do tecido de sacaria para fazer o acabamento. 10 - Divida em 2 partes o bordado inglês. Alfinete posicionando-os numa das bordas do pano de prato. Os dois pedaços de bordado inglês deverão estar com as laterais arrematadas em ponto zigue-zague. 11 - Faça o acabamento do barrado, costurando o viés em ponto zigue-zague. Alfinete-o no vão entre os dois bordados ingleses. 12 - Para finalizar, costure o barrado, em ponto reto, rente ao viés. Outras sugestões de cores: Abraços, ótimo trabalho.

Two years earlier I found seminole quilt borders and was amazed how easy it happens. A boarder that seems very complicated is easy to sew following some simple steps. 1. Cut 3 strips and sew them together. 2. Cut equal pieces along the strips. 3. Turn each even piece. 4. Sew together and trim. In my case I cut three strips: 1,5 " blue printed strip (it was 1" printed strip on the fabric) 3/4" dark red strip 2 " white strip Sew them together to have such long strip. Cut 1,5 " pieces along the whole strip, turn and stitch. Don't worry you have to trim. In my case I want to sew table napkins, so add a 2" strip on the left and 11,5" square on the right. Right side together sew with the backing fabric leaving 4" opening for turning over. After turning over iron well. Stitch along the boarder and the edges. You are ready for serving!
Here is my first attempt of a Seminole heart design; I made it in the summer. When you have a fabric with a rainbow design that runs on the entire width of the fabric, you have to use it all, no matter what! In this way I ended up with a long row of 20 […]
