Blackout lining

[JoanE]

Hi

This is an incredibly stupid question but:

I need to join 2.5 widths of blackout lining, but can't convince my daughter there will be needle holes showing the light through, is there any other way of joining blackouts???????????????

Hi JoanE

If you sew the linings together and iron the seams over to one side rather than an open seam you should be fine. Alternatively you can sandwich loose widths of 3pass inside the curtain and face fabric, allowing it to hang loose, overlap at the seams and don't hem it.
