Hello, this being my first post.. I wanted to quickly introduce myself first (hello!) and secondly, if anyone knows anywhere I can get hold of 90w x 54L pencil pleat blackout curtains for a toddler girls bedroom. The pole track is 193cm.. and so I was told i'd need a 90 x 54 size..(Does that sound right?)
So far.. my hours of searching the net are totally fruitless... this seems a wide fit and most places only do a standard width of 66ish...
literally ANY help gratefully received.. I'm already pulling my hair out over this!
Thanks :)

I had this problem.

And someone suggested I buy two sets and have them sewn together.

And it worked!!

Took them to a clothing alterations/dry cleaners right next to the john Lewis I bought the ready mades from and had them back within a week.

If they have blackout lining make sure they awe the seam right up to the lining - otherwise you will have a non-black out vertical line in your curtain!

I got extra wide blackouts from dunelm (my windows were 2.5 metres wide)

Marks and Spencer's do an extra wide fit, but not sure if they will have any specifically for children.

Have you a curtain making shop near you ? I guess it wouldn't be much difference in price to have them made up , and you can ask for a quote :)

They won't be particularly full, but 168cm should be fine on your track.

I got wide fit curtains from 247 curtains. Excellent quality, and value.

On another thought- how about a black out roller blind, and 'ordinary' curtains?
