Now, for today's post. At our Scraps and Prayers class for making my 'Joy' sampler, I was asked to share the measurements for my scoring on my 12 X 12" background piece. Today's post is all about those measurements.
Here's the sampler.
Because it's a square, you only have to score on two sides. I'm sure there are other ways to do your scoring or not use any at all. This is just the way I decided to do this particular project.
Here's how the measurements worked out on my template and below it are the written out measurements.
Using the Simply Scored Scoring Tool, score at ...
1"
4"
4 1/2"
7 12"
7 3?4"
8"
11"
Turn 90 degrees and repeat same measurements.
You can then decide which side of the CS you'll use for your project.
Having the outside 'borders' of the background at 1" gives you a little wiggle room. Some of the 12 X 12" frames you get don't leave an opening of completely 12 inches.
I did the scoring for 2 purposes:
- First, it adds a little interest and texture to your project.
- Second, it helps you keep your placement even for attaching the little squares.
If you haven't tried creating your own sampler, I hope you'll give it a try. You can make them for every season and/or occasion.
Warning:
They're so much fun, they become almost addictive.
