I found the perfect fabric to make curtains for my craft room the office. If you look at it close there are all kinds of sewing stuff-thread, scissors, sewing machine etc. I'm in love. I whipped up some curtains using this quick and easy pattern. Well it would have been quick if, even though I checked 4 times, hadn't to still manage to cut it out upside down and have to drive clear across town for more fabric. It made me feel a little "dumb. I trimmed it with a black dot fabric to add a little fun and help them pop against my wall.
I sew a lot and people always say how they'd love to learn. If you're a newby, then I'd recommend starting w/ one of these patterns. (this isn't a book-it's just a regular pattern) The directions are super simple and if you hit a sale you can get them for .99.
Are you in need of some really great V-Day Day decor? Well you're in lucky, I'm giving some away in this week's link party.
Linking up here.
They look great!

ReplyDeleteOk, I LOVE that fabric!! How cute, and how perfect for your craft room!! The polka dot trim is just spot on! It anchors the curtain nicely and is a nice punctuation to the great print. I really need to replace the curtain in my bedroom, and that style might be just the thing. Sadly that fab print wouldn't go in there, but I really like that style. I'll have to look for that pattern the next time I see Simplicity patterns on sale. Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteso cute!
