I take the length or width and divide by the number of scallops I would like to have on the side then using a compass make a template and then transfer design to the border.

The one thing about scallops is you don't need to have a ton of them to make an impact, IMHO less is more in this situation.

On scallops I always used a bias binding, much easier to go around curves with.
