Have spent the last 2 weeks studying blinds
- I think I am now ready to get started on re-doing the study one (properly this time!!).
I am following the M and D book Curtains, blinds and Cushions.
Blind is in recess - final measurement 114cm wide, 116 deep and using the existing headrail 10cms deep.
so.... with a 2cm cascade and working on 7 sections, 3 rod pockets...
I am working on pleat sections 1 and 2 @12.5cm each
3 and 4 @ 14.5cms each
5 and 6 @ 16.5cm each
and section 7 at 18.5cm.
I will make my rod pockets directly from the lining and attempt to handsew the rest of the blind
Hope the above makes sense.
I have re-read the making-up part a billion times, so trying to get to grips with this project mentally, before I do an 'angela' and cock it all up!.
