Curtain Call

As promised...pictures, not so great pictures, please pardon the mess on the desk! Cozy reading corner...and also the place I sit every morning with my coffee to chat with MBM. Stats on the draperies...non-functioning flat panel drapery...100% linen (not too bad to work with), cotton print accent fabric, fully lined in poly/cotton ivory lining. Applied 4" banding, top stitched on to the linen. Hand sewn rings... Blind hems...no stitching visible from the face of the drapery. And today's project the footlocker...that is if I can manage to get it out the storage room in the basement!

I think this change in employment status is going to equal lots of fun projects for us to peek in on. Great job on the drapes!

You ARE on a roll! Good for you!! :)
I wish I could sew, just to be able to make drapery panels and pillows. Taking a sewing class has been on my 'to do' list for years!
