Here was the first version.....
I used what I thought was the last piece of curtaining in this style that I had and I figured I would just have to put up with its width since it was all I had - it was just, but it doesn't look right to me. Then lo and behold, out of the material cupboard I had dragged down to the shed falls a plastic bag and in it, more of the curtaining, lace and the tape! Yaah. So I decided I would be redoing it despite hubby's protests. Last weekend didn't work out for this and I think inwardly I was putting it off. So this weekend I pushed myself to sew it at the last part of this avo (I work well to deadlines - can't you tell?). Here is the second effort which personally I feel outstrips the first!!
Now this is where I need your opinion. I have bunched up the curtain in two different ways - the first with scallops down the bottom and the second with roughing all the way down. Now I need to know what you think looks better as I can't decide!
Oh and ignore the fact that the sides down hang down straight yet. I raided hubby and son's fishing table for a sinker to weight down the bottom of the curtain so it hangs straight and does not crimp inwards, but they didn't have a sinker heavy enough so off to the tackle shop myself I think!
Ok I will wait for your opinions :)
I like the second best....
ReplyDeletei like the first one because its not over done.
ReplyDeletethe other one looks a bit too much in my opinion. :)
the second one is good also, but i wouldnt hang the third one up in my bathroom ;D .

... it's mini...i like the first cause it also matches in with your coloured curtain (scalloped down the bottom) well done... whichever you choose... i always rely myself on whatever leads to LESS CLEANING as curtains can be dust collectors.... you are so skillful.... ;)
ReplyDeleteHave you decided? I like the one with scallops down the bottom. Very nice!! You're so clever!
ReplyDeleteNo I haven't decided yet as i wanted to take on board all of your opinions however I have had the latter version hanging up all week and I feel like it looks a little messy - I think I am leaning to the first version with the scallops down the bottom. Will leave that one up for a while and see what I think of it over time before i tidy up the cords and get sinkers on it. Thanks for your help girls. :)
