I had a dilemma. I cannot afford blinds in the windows on the East side of my house, but in the spring and summer the sun heats up the house in the early morning, and the air conditioner struggles to catch up all day long. Sooooo..... my blessed friend, J***, offered to help me make some curtains. My hubby says that he never gets to decide anything about the inside of the house, so he chose the material. I sewed some of the sides (don't look closely at them, the sewing maching kinda got away from me sometimes.) :) But, I think that they look cute, and we can close them when it is warm to keep the morning sun out, but they are not so thick that no light can get in.
Now, if the weather would just get warm so I can test them out, I would appreciate it. I am sick of snow and cold!!! So, the first photo is after, and the second one is what it looked like before!! Please excuse the stuff on the table, I was sealing the counter tops and had to move everything. :)

Nice fabric! I was looking at some fabric like is in the long curtains. I"m so not good at sewing, most everything I make turns out a little bit bad. I'm about to give up ever sewing again! lol
They look beautiful! Nice job! Miss you!
Great job! I'm proud of you for sewing, it's a daring adventure.
Hey I would put another rod at the bottom and then gather the curtains in the middle...love ya.. but it all looks sooo good..
