As luck would have it, I found more information on scallops after completing the pillows. I want to include the new found information for future reference.
An odd number of scallops is visually more appealing than an even number.
Calculate the number of scallops; if inches do not divide well, try centimeters.
Make a template from freezer paper. It can temporarily be ironed and removed after marking.
Use a small stitch length for well defined lines.
Pressing and clipping can help create crisp lines. Try to press inside the scallop before turning right side out. After turning and pressing. Clip by staggering the the clip lines on the two layers. This will create a more polished look on sheer fabrics. Press and finger roll the seam line to the inside so the seam line will not not show onthe finish piece.
