Curtains are one of the easiest and most useful things to make: it can be very difficult to find just the right curtains for your windows, and making them yourself means you can make them exactly to your own personal preference. For the curtain lining add 6” to the finished length required (4” for the hem and 2” to turn under the heading tape. If your curtains are very big, you may need to support the bulk of curtaining on a table or similar arrangement or get an extra pair of hands to help guide the heading through the machine.
