Curtain dilemma
Okay, here's another curtain question. I am in the midst of making my first
insulated pair of curtains and have 1 panel finished. They are very heavy, made with a velvety-suede material, interlining and lining and are 110"x62" (1 panel). They are just a plain panel (like tab tops without the tab). I was going to use the clips, but the lady at the fabric store said those slip too easily and suggested sewing the hangers directly to the drape. I tried doing that with 1, but I'm afraid the drape is too heavy just to be connected by thread, and I don't want the thread to rip the drape from the weight. I don't particularly want to use grommets because that would shorten the length, although I will at last resort. Also, will 10 hangers be enough for a drape this size (20 for both panels) or should I use more? I've made curtains before but nothing this big, so I'm at a loss. Thanks for your advice! Carolyn |
