I am not very good at making things [massive understatement] but we have such a draughty front door that I have decided to make a door curtain. My plan is to buy these: ready make Ikea curtains and then interline them with a lambs wool blanket I got for 99p from Oxfam this morning. So how does this sound:
- Cut blanket to size, 2 pieces 138cm x 3m ish
- Tack the blanket halves onto the curtains using stitches that are quite large on the inside but tiny on the outside so you can't see how crap my sewing is them
- Put the two curtains together with the blanket on the inside and stitch them together all round the outside with a sewing machine
- Buy some cheap dark material to sew on the bottom because it is bound to get dirty and frayed
Is there method to my madness? Have I forgotten anything important? Please advise this very uncrafty person, thanks
