Allusionist Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 If you don't want to purchase a book on windows there is always the library where I got most of resources from. I love interlibrary loans I am using Doll house Do it yourself: Curtains by Sue Heaser. Got it for about $ 1 at local second hand book store, after I checked it out at the library. It's a decent has patterns that are traceable, very little if any sewing involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caseymini Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 I am the above mentioned "Casey". The addy for my blog is below my signature. Just hit "my blog changes daily". I have several entries that are on making curtains. They are fairly easy to do and there is no sewing involved. Glue, hairspray and a pin board made of ceiling tile and you can make any style you want. And they look real. Just put curtains in the search box on the right side and hit older posts at the bottom of each page that comes up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
