Next week's job is two roman blinds using two fabrics. The central panel on each blind is a fabric print of Andy Warhol's Marilyn Monroe, with large repeating squares of the portrait. I therefore want to keep each blind using complete portraits only - no part heads anywhere. We've decided on a cream border on sides and bottom.
I'm now considering which option will look best - have the side borders run the entire length of the blind with a small chunk of bottom border in the middle below Marilyn, or to make the side borders the same length as the marilyn panel and have the bottom border run the full width of the blind.
I'm unsure as to which will look best and would really appreciate your input.
I also wonder about mitering the face corners of the border. That way it would be much neater. I'm making them by hand so it would mean having the "ugly" bit at the back covered by lining. Maybe that's the best option...
