I hate spending too much money on curtains. So, I'm going to buy 4 cloth tablecloths 84" length each and straight-sew to make a pocket rod hole. This should serve well as panels. I'm then going to buy 2 cloth tablecloths at 120" length. I'm going to sew these together at the widths edge. This will be then be used as a valance.
All these tablecloths are purchased at a bargain price. I'm buying the fancy loop things (sorry I don't know what they're called!) that you place on each corner and one for the center. I'm hoping the center one will hide the joining seam. This is a northern faced window so I won't have to worry about fading so I'm not going to line these curtains. I already have the pocket rod from the previous curtains. Can anyone offer me advice on anything that I may be overlooking?
