I followed the instructions and all my curtains turned out neat, warm and beatiful. Makes a huge difference in a listed house with single glazed windows! Thank you!
I used this video to make an interlined door curtain. It turned out very well and insulates the door. Only problem I had was laying out the fabric as I did not have a large enough table or even floor space. Still managed it though.
Thank you for such a great tutorial, my curtains have turned out really nicely. Only issue I have got is that the interlining is falling down in the middle causing a problem when hung. Would you suggest stab stitching through all layers to lock them together? Thank you.
I would never advise machine stitching the sides of the lining to the front fabric as, once hung over time the sides pucker and distort. Always hand stitch lining to front to allow for settling.
Hello Susie A1. Once you have attached the curtain heading-tape, you can unpick or cut the ends of the running stitch holding the interlining in place, and pull the thread out. Alternatively, if the stitch is not visible on the right-side of your fabric, you could just leave it in place.
Hello, between 00.58 and 01.10 Lauren explains the need to press creases into the curtain but perhaps she needed to make it clearer that this applied to the top of the curtain as well as the sides.
I am confused as part 1 says to cut the soft backed lining 4cm narrower in width than the finished curtain so I can't match up the edges of the main fabric and the soft backed lining as shown in part 4. My soft backed lining is too narrow, please help...
Hello Philippa, you need to line up one edge of the top fabric with one edge of the soft back lining and sew them together, even though the other side of the fabrics will not line up. Then turn the fabric around and bring the other edge of the top fabric together with the other edge of the soft back lining and sew them together. The top fabric will be wider than the soft-back lining. When you've sewn both edges together, turn the tube of fabric right-side out and iron the edges. This way, the seams all end up on the back of the curtain, as shown at 1.04 in this video, rather than running down the edge of the curtain. We hope this helps.

I am not sure what to do with the running stitch at the top holding the interlining in place

"Sits where the crease is on the main fabric"(at the top). There was no instruction to put a crease there before. Where has that come from?

I am also confused by this as thermal lining is 14 cm less than the main fabric as per instructions
@@fionakmp I think she said four cm not fourteen cm?
I'm baffled by having to have the curtain tape too long, and then folding it up to make it fit? Hoping that part comes clear in the last video...
I am very surprised you gave left the selvedges on the curtains as selvedges should always be removed.
