So today we’re just going to look at the pretty pictures!
This room only has one window, so I made 2 panels.. For each panel, I folded the sides in about a 1/2 an inch and ironed it, then sewed it in place..I folded the bottoms of the panels in 1″ and ironed, then the tops got folded in 3″ and ironed.
Both the bottom hem and the top were sewn in place as well.. And guess what?You really can get a lot fancier with your hems if you want to get a more finished edge.You can fold them in twice to hide the fraying fabric pretty easily and iron then sew that.
The thing is though, you really don’t have to, and today is all about making this as simple and do-able as possible.The real key is picking a really beautiful fabric that you love, and whether you go fancy with your sewing or extremely basic, you will absolutely love the end result!.
Measuring your own fabric is great because you can control exactly how they fall and get them to just slightly pool or graze the floor, depending on your mood..
I love this fabric next to our new floors and those big fat baseboards.Projects like baby Jack’s nursery!.
…because it looked like this:.KNOW.. Not to worry!
Here’s how it looks today!.You can read more about that crazy adventure of a renovation here!.
