Hi everyone
Any ideas please!
I am going to make curtains that will have a coloured fabric lining (not necessarily lining fabric) and interlined, the heading will be scooped goblet (tulip shaped) with the contrast lining fabric in the scoop, there will no hems as such, the fabrics will be sewn together with a 5mm of the 'lining fabric' showing on the leading edges. The curtains will also be tied back with the lining showing into the room from about a metre up from the floor . The curtains will only be closed on winter evenings, as it is a large patio door.
My quandary is:-
1 How do I get them interlined, would I lockstich to the fabric then sew the lining and fabric like an opened ended pillowcase
2 How would I tie back the curtains showing the lining fabric, I thought of attaching a decorative ring to leading edge somewhere and securing the ring to the normal tie back hook
I have all these ideas in my head but not sure how to execute them.
Your vast wealth of knowledge will be greatly appreciated.
