This curtain-making class will give you the skills and confidence to make your own professional-looking curtains.
Course description
It’s extremely useful to be able to make your own curtains. Ready-made curtains come in standard sizes and usually don’t usually fit very well. And the colours, patterns and heading types available can be restrictive. So you may not be able to find them in a specific colour or pattern to match your other decor.
Custom-made curtains are extremely expensive but they are actually quite easy to make yourself. You’ll be able to coordinate your soft furnishings in future at a fraction of the price of having them made. Once you can make your own, you’ll be able to alter ready-made curtains too. Curtain-making is also immensely satisfying but you do need to take accurate measurements and understand how to match patterns.
This workshop will teach you everything you need to know how to make your own curtains.
Who is curtain-making aimed at?
Intermediate sewists. You should have confident sewing skills and be able to sew straight accurate seams and hems.
