Has anyone made curtains?

lisaroo · January 2010

I have been looking for something specific for the nursery, but can't really find it. Today I saw some fabric that would be perfect. I only need half panel sizes. I do have a sewing machine, which I understand the basics of. Is this something that can be done on a somewhat beginner level?

(I am not talking anything fancy at all, just a basic hanging)

I made a valance for DD's room two days after buying my sewing machine with absolutely NO experience at all. I can only do simple basic straight lines and I did it! Good luck!

Curtains are easy. You can even find no-sew patterns for them.

I made curtains for ds's nursery at our old house and I barely knew how to thread the needle! I ended up making basic panels and they turned out really well. I suggest double-checking all your measurements though since that seemed to be the most difficult thing for me!

GL!

super easy! hem the 3 edges, then i cheat and fold the material over 2 yardsticks as my guide for the rod! 1 for the rod and one for the frill above the rod. i have made many curtains this way!!
