I have been dabbling in uncharted sewing waters.
This is a skill I would love to develop more, so this project has definitely whet my appetite.
My gracious mother-in-law helped me buy the non-see-through fabric and told me which seams to sew first. She even folded a little curtain diagram for me. So I could visually understand how to sew the edges, hem, and rod pocket. So helpful!
I also received Bert's help on drilling into the window frame.
And then again, when it turned out the finished curtain was shorter than expected. :)
It's much friendlier than the dusty blinds that I always meant to, but never actually did, clean. I am excited to have more natural light in our new space!
beki! first, way to go on the blogging. and "dwell" is SO you.
ReplyDeletesecond, congratulations on a job well done! what a beautiful picture of your lovely curtain rippling in the wind. way to go!
and here's to many more sewing projects in the future! :)
okay, maybe it isn't rippling in the wind (i can't tell if your window is open?)...but it looks great either way!
ReplyDelete"Sew So" I get it...and I think it's hilarious.
