I made these curtains from a yard of delicate, embroidered burlap-type fabric I bought at the Thurmont, MD, fabric warehouse. Initially my friend was interested in it for curtains for her master bathroom or bedroom. I bought the yard so she could go home and see what it looked like, knowing I would find some use for the yard. Little did we know that we'd find a use for it in the bathroom they installed in the home office/gym/garage.
When I started measuring, I realized the swath of fabric wasn't quite long enough for this window space so I cut a strip of brown, lightly printed cotton from my to-be-quilted-sometime collection and sewed it on the back of the delicate burlap, along the top to make the extra length for the tension rod.
I really like how it turned out. It really compliments this beautiful bathroom.
