"Sew" Easy Windows
Country Style : Episode COS-308 -- More Projects »
A straight seam, a hand stitch, maybe some iron-on tape and voila! You have out-of-the-ordinary window treatments that require almost no sewing skills. Karol Dewulf Nickel from Better Homes and Gardens magazine shares some ideas:
Hang fringed linen panels on swing-arm rods. Sew the selvage ends and unravel the linen to create a fringe. Knot the fringe close to the edge and tie onto rods.
Hang double-sided rolled shades on French doors or windows that are rarely opened. Straight-stitch the two panels together and hang from clip hooks or a rod. Use ribbon to keep the panels in place.
Add wooden rings to a decorative table runner and hang from a rod for a café-style valance.
