It took me a good 4 hour chunk of time on Tuesday, but the curtains are finally done! I was hoping to finish them in under 2 hours, since they were already mostly sewn, but as I tweaked the design a little to incorporate features I wanted it got to be a bigger project! For instance, I added tabs at the top of the curtain for hanging so it would be easier to move the curtains. Originally, I had just folded the fabric over and sewn a loop for the rod to go through, but it made the curtains to difficult to open and close. The tabs are much better, plus I like the way the curtains lay now more!
The green and cream fabric was from a friend that I helped with her sewing machine. She made curtains for her kitchen and had a ton of fabric left over, I think I still have 2-3 yards left!
Here's that list again- I'm still hoping I can power through the rest of these things before the week is out!

So pretty! I love that fabric. The desk and the wood trim on your windows are gorgeous too. You sure are plowing through that list. My list consists of 1) wake up 2) brush teeth 3) take a nap. May not be spectacular but I'm checking these off everyday.
ReplyDeleteVery nice! The fabric looks great too. I can just imagine sitting down to write at the desk--it looks so inviting!
ReplyDeleteIt looks fabulous! And I know it's gotta feel good to look at it and see a completed project :)
