Any ideas how much i can expect to pay for a set of fully lined pencil pleat curtain with 6 ft drop. Quotes seem so high but it's been a while since I had curtains made. I have the fabric already. Thanks. Window is 6X5.

I paid £900 for my bay window curtains ten years ago (similar drop but maybe a bit wider?).

What have you been quoted?

Is there pattern matching to be done?

Honestly I’d be expecting anything from £1200/2500.

I looked for our window about 3 or 4 years ago and it was about £1k, I bought the ready made ones for about £180 in the same material and DH just raised the pole a bit so they fitted, otherwise I would have just shortened them or had them shortened to fit. This was John Lewis.

Definitely would expect 4 figures, though it depends on the fabric and are they going to be lined, interlined etc.

Our bedroom curtains are going with me to the grave the amount they cost 😳

Ah sorry I see you have the fabric already, maybe not as much then
