The question is about a situation where I was wrong and made a mistake when a meeting happened, and thus we couldn't get the project.
"I am to blame for not getting the project"
Is that the correct way to say this?
All I want to know is get through between "I am to blame, I am to be blamed, I blame myself." or "I blame on me" I just want to get same meaning with "It's my fault."
"For not getting, not for getting, to not get, not to get."
What's the difference those phrases?

This is a grammatically correct sentence to answer your first question. You are claiming that you are the one responsible for the group not being able to get the project.
This means you are at fault or are responsible for something.
This is the exact same thing as the last one, but it incorporates an infinitive phrase. Meaning is the same.
This means you are PERSONALLY putting the blame on yourself. It's like saying "I put myself at fault" or "I am responsible for this".
This is not a grammatically correct sentence. But you could say:
All four of those sentences essentially say that you are at fault. You are claiming responsibility.
