🧡Rust velvet pencil pleat curtains

The hems of these were quite a challenge as the traditional way just doesn’t do it for velvet

I went down a long internet rabbit hole trying to find ways of hand hemming velvet without it showing on the front side and finally found a good method so that no stitching was visible once hung 😮‍💨

I have some availability between now and November so feel free to dm me with your project, I’m very happy to quote, discuss, and advise with absolutely no obligation!

✂️Bay window cafe curtains in Taupe

Attached using simple tension rods, these are great for diffusing light and adding privacy
The fabric I’ve used for these is a 50% linen 50% polyester mix so you have the look of linen but with all the benefits of a manmade fibre - hard wearing, minimal creasing and no shrinkage when washed

If you’re considering a set for you’re home feel free to DM me with a photo & dimensions for a quick quote

🌷Roman Blinds made with vintage WM print Sanderson fabric

🌷Fully lined and completely hand sewn with no stitching visible at all

🌷Getting the print lined up perfectly within the frame of the window proved quite challenging, they took me an absolute age but luckily I don’t charge by the hour! 

🌷All my blinds come attached to an easy to install headrail & are made to your exactly measurements

I had to carefully steer the “client” away from the initial pokemon print brief but I’m sure she’ll thank me later!

1st post so guess I’m talking to myself here!

After years of working in and then falling out of love with the fashion industry I’m redirecting my skills into interiors and more specifically curtain making.

Jumping in deep here with this gorgeous Marimekko linen print. Designed & woven in Finland. Hung in E17
