Well its been a longtime a coming and the wifes very busy schedule but since spring is here she decided to put some time into the curtains. The top or main curtains are done now however the inside or the under curtains are to be hemmed yet. And a green ribbon added.

I think maybe Doug Hodder will enjoy seeing these.

Matching Pillow cases and quilt covers are in the making also. (european style) to be pulled over the quilts. (cant remember what they are in English) Almost like a sheet but its a bag instead. :lol:

Yeah the curtains are one of the details we haven't gotten too either. Privacy is nice so I think before we start taking it out this year my wife will be making some curtains too.

I love the fabric! It really reminds me of some you might see in a hunting lodge. Seems very appropriate for teardrop curtains.

Hey Suvi!! Those curtains look great! Hope you have enough fabric for the rest of the project as I can't get that one anymore. Doug

Hi Joanne

They look better in real life than on photos. Im not so good with this camera thing. But they will dress up the interior of our tear nicely.

Wife says that some sort of satin green ribbon need to be with them as the curtains have green in them, I wont interfere with her designing.

:lol: :lol:

Great to hear from you Joanne :thumbsup:

Hello Doug

We may not have enough however we will use a different fabric on the back but it will match so then we,ll have the top covered on the pillows and Duvet?

The material is very soft and will work nicely.

People here have said it is very nice material. And the scene is special and not to be found here at all.

Thank You Doug

Heikki and Suvi :thumbsup:

Very nice work on the curtains. They have a nice "outdoorsy" look to them.

I can't get my wife to sew anything.It might have something to do with the fact that I killed two sewing machines having her make cornhole bags for my league. 108 of 'em.

p.s. if anyone needs a custom set of regulation cornhole boards and bags hit me up through pm. I make competition grade sets.
