Hi
This is only my second post and am feeling very naive and stupid about all this curtain and blind making.
I have got my fabric and am now getting read to cut it. Only problem is (and I know this is going to sound really stupid) but how do I make sure the width of the fabric is level when I cut it. Obviously I do not know if the fabric has been cut straight when I bought it and therefore I cannot just measure down from there. Feeling rather confused. I am using fabric with vertical stripes and I really dont want to end up with wonky stripes. Am I right to assume that the sides are straight as these have not been cut?
Please can someone explain in simple beginners terms!!!
Many thanks.
