Not sure where to put this, but I thought I'd make a start here.
I want some red curtains for the DCs room, with white polka dots. I've fallen in love with a fabric, and I've picked out the blackout lining, too.
The lady from the clothing alterations shop said she'd put the two together, attach the lining, do the hemming etc, but she said curtain making is difficult and she wouldn't be able to do any more than that...
Now, I'm thinking I don't need anything too fancy, and curtain poles keep the curtains too far away from the windows because of how ours are built, so doing the ones in the kids' room with curtain tape would be fine by me.
I've looked on ebay for some, but there are different types, and I don't know what the difference is. I thought curtain tape just went flat onto the top of the fabric in a strip (the only pair of curtains I ever owned with tape had it like that, anyway), but it seems there are ruffles and pinch and who knows what else.
I'm confused.
Anyone know anything?
