Make Your Own Roman Blinds
Come along and learn how to make your very own Roman blind, to give your rooms an elegant and streamlined look. Not for beginners. A list of materials will be emailed to you before course starts.
Description
Roman blinds are a perennial favourite because they use a lot less fabric than the usual pencil pleated or gathered curtains - as well as making your rooms look streamlined and uncluttered.
During the four weeks you will learn how to accurately measure your window to enable you to create very own customized roman blind.
Some hardware included in course fee but a list of all other materials (fabric, etc) will be sent out to you when the course is confirmed.
Please choose a narrow window for your first project - max 150cms wide.
By the end of the course you'll be able to
- Accurately measure your window
- Calculate how much fabric to purchase
- Measure and cut out your curtain
- Use appropriate machine skills to sew your curtain fabric
- Use finishing skills to apply rings and cords to your curtain
