Just looking for ideas I guess.
I'm planning on making some new curtains for my Mum's bay window, which are only to be window sill length. As it's a bay, a track is going to be the best (and most cost effective) system. I would really like to make something with a nice heading, but have seen on the forum that hand-made headings tend not to sit well on a track. If you were in my situation, what would you choose?
I was wondering if I did goblet pleats - but allowed more per width than normal - and instead of the flat 'stacking' backwards, allowing it to fall forward to create a pleat between the goblets (I know what I mean, but am having trouble describing it); if it would work - how would I attach to the track, as these normally assume working with a tape of some description.
Hope i've described it well enough for people to understand what I mean.....
