Pah! Wundaweb not good enough for some folk! Steve, will you be branching out into making "ladies garments" like Mike Baldwin did in Corrie?
I envy your sewing machine. Has enough welly to do canvas or vinyl for seat covers and door cards too. Just make sure all specks of rust are cleaned off and buy new needles as I recently opened a 30 or 40 year old pack of needles and they all snapped immediately because of microscopic spots of corrosion.
If you can pick it up next weekend you can have it, it'll get skipped otherwise. I saved it from my house clearing on a whim just for this - it was on it's way to the tip. @davidoft expressed interest but never came to fetch.
I think it is great you are making your own curtains and so pleased you decided on cushions! What's the material like?
ok. But only as i have a question. They don't open as far as i'd like, so... Chop in half or not? I'll have to make tie-backs whichever. Closed Open - does open a little bit more but without tie backs springs shut a bit.
The only thing is that no tie back's and you loose a lot of window you can see through and light so I'd say cut in half but it's your van
If you chop them in half you will have to sew in a hem at the side where you have cut making them shorter by half an inch or so & this is an issue as they are already lined. Bloody good results though Zedders!!
Who do you think I am, Mary bleedin Poppins? It's blackout material, black one side, white the other.
Maybe not then! The bunching at the bottom may not help. I would've been tempted to use magnets to secure the bootom as opposed to the curtain wire. but if you are using tie backs just remove the bottom wire, insert a couple of magets & stitch them in. Tie backs will give you more window.
