Has anyone ever used a DIY roller blind kit?

Have seen them on ebay and while I'm not great with the sewing machine it looks pretty easy to make.

Am I right in thinking you just hem the fabric and stick it onto the roller? Do I need to back it in any way? Thinking of using some Cath Kidston cotton fabric for the kitchen so keeping it dark not really a consideration.

I made one once, from a John Lewis kit, and depending on your fabric, you may want to starch it as well. Don't worry about backing it if darkness isn't an issue. It didn't look exactly professional, but I was happy with it.

Good luck.
