So today I'm making curtains. I've never made them before, but they seam pretty simple (see what I did there?) they're for Tom's bedroom and he's going for an green and brown theme. A couple of months ago we spotted a gorgeous wool mix in Chesterfield market, isn't it fabulous?
It's a heavy fabric and so I'm being a little lazy and not lining it, but there is always the possibility of pulling the rail down if I did (which is what I'm using for my excuse not to line it!) but it is beautiful to work with and I'm really enjoying it, despite my initial bored reaction to sewing curtains.
So at the moment, with my fabric and teeth full of pins, I have questions for the fellow sewers out there...is there anything you were initially worried about sewing that turned out well, and what is your favourite material to work with to date?
Happy sewing,
Toni
