This is the best tutorial for Roman Shades I've yet to see. The directions are clear and simple, the accompanying video shows precise detail, and your pleat calculator is an outstanding bonus! Thank you for making this wonderful instructional piece available.
I have checked out several videos and yours is the best one yet. Your step by step direction are excellent. Now I can get started on my project. Thank you!
AGAIN another great video, THANK YOU FOR THE FABRIC CALCULATOR FOR THE ROMAN SHADES. Made my life so much easier, appreciate this. was going to put too less of rods in there, so, the calculator corrected my errors. The video is great will be for sure making this.
I watched your other video on Roman Shades, and this one has added many more helpful hints. I have never made Roman Shades before, but I'm sure that I can. I haven't totaled up the necessary supplies which you offer on your site. As always, the postage and handling is the deciding factor. I did find the Calculator very, very helpful, and your thoroughness is noteworthy. Thanks.
Interesting video and well done. I've done some research and calculating of costs and unfortunately I've found that I can purchase high quality Roman Shades much, much cheaper than I can make them myself using your hardware. Of course, If I want something 'Custom', where I absolutely love the fabric and I must have it, then there's no alternative than to make them myself. Thank you for an informative video though.....
I've used the rib tape before and had bad luck, but I'm considering trying it again. When I used it, the tape did not stick very well and came off in several areas, even after ironing a lot. Is there a trick to getting it to stay better? I use regular Roclon lining fabric and blackout. Also will this tape hold up for years? I'm curious. I don't want customers coming back to me saying it fell off. I'd prefer not to sew it on also bc I wouldn't want the stiching in front.
I have watched two of your videos on how to make roman shades...very impressed with both. Which method of creating the liftlines is best (lasts the longest), the wooden dowel method or the iron-on-roman rib tape? Thank you.
This is a great video. The instructions are very clear. The only question I have is how to splice the ribs. I have the ribs and the metal pins but can’t get the pin into the end. Thanks for your help.
Is it necessary to put the extra row of rod pocket tape and rods which do not have the curtain rings attached? Does the fold need weighting down? It is a good instructive video. Thanks.
+Kate Rosenwald The dowels or ribs should allow the curtain to fold better, but that does not mean it will not fold without them. So, you can try it without at each non-ring area. The weighted rod is needed to make the cord lock work correctly.
Awesome, very helpful video! I have a question. I am making insulated roman shades for my leaky windows, and plan to add a layer of fleece in the middle. Should i make that layer the same width as the back piece, or the same as the width as the folded front piece will be, (after it's sewn onto the back piece, and pressed into place with the same amount of material on each side of the smaller back piece? I want it to go all the way to the edge, to better block drafts. Also, do I need ribs, or can I just sew the rings onto all of the layers of the shade, in the appropriate places? Thank you.
If the fleece is not too thick I would cut it to be the same size as the decorative fabric. Then you would sew all three layers together like what is shown at 9:36 min. However, if it is rather thick you would have a fairly thick edge, since it would fold to the backside. Without the ribs, the shade may not fold as nicely along the edge.
@@SailriteDIY Thank you so much for your quick response! I am so excited to get started on these. It's not super thick fleece. I think I will try it without the ribs, and try to "train the fabric to fold" nicely. I would like to be able to wash them gently. I can always iron rib tape on later if needed. Do you prewash your fabric, if it is cotton, to account for shrinkage?
I’ve ordered my supplies from Sailrite and have them for my Roman shade project and I’m excited to get started! After watching your great video several times, I have a question. I went to Sailrite’s website to the fabric calculator and on section C 8 inches has already been entered for the standard stacked shade height. What is a stacked shade height and where is it in the Roman shade?
The stacked height is approximately the size of the height of the shade when it is pulled all the way up. It can be modified, but I do not recommend it as it will add or remove ribs until the desired height of the shade is reached and sometimes it does not look as good if modified, in my opinion. So... I never change it and I recommend you do not as well.
hi great tutorial. i am wanting to make my own roman blinds for my living room and find your instructions very helpful. my only concern is that when u wash the blind wont the iron on tape lose its adhesive and start to fall off? same with the velcro. if its washed regularly wont that also become ineffective? also can u please do a tutorial on cascading roman blinds because i wanting to do that design. thanks
Hi Abbi, Yes, you are correct the iron on tape does not hold (stay glued) well when washed via a washing machine. I recommend washing by hand. The Velcro is sewn in place, so it will not come off. In the future we may do a cascading roman blind project.
Such an excellent demonstration. I really loved it. Couldn't really understand though how to tie the strings through the shuttle. I might do it practically n learn on my own.Thanks for the knowledge.
Thank you for your amazing tutorial and website/ Fabric calculator! Made myself some beautiful Roman shades. They look very professional. Question is, is there a way to made a valance in these shades? I love the finished look of a valance.
That is so awesome! We are so glad that Sailrite was able to help. We do not have a video on making a specific valance for this shade system, but do have a general valance video that my be helpful. Here is the link: th-cam.com/video/1w6G2TJaijo/w-d-xo.html
This may seem an obvious question, but you had brought up taking them down to be washed... How does one do that with this design? Do you have to restring it each time in order to do so, or do the rings holding the cording come apart (like a key ring) so you can just detach/reattach the fabric to wash them?
+E Nunya Shades that are complicated in construction, like this shade, typically should not be washed. Washing may cause the iron on rib tape to come apart. We recommend they be vacuumed instead of washing.
Sailrite But at the beginning of the video, the gentleman specifically states that the reason for choosing the iron tape was for easy removal of the ribs for washing... That was, to my understanding, why there is an alternate video showing the ribs being sewn in. Hope you can clear this up for us :)
+E Nunya You are correct, but after washing my shades I found the iron on rib tape does not hold up as well as expected in a washing machine. So... I asked some experts about how to wash complicated shades and they all responded; You don't wash them in a washing machine unless you want to do repairs afterwards. Some said you can hand wash them carefully, if absolutely required.
Very good explanation. I have the roman shades, but they do not require a cord or to be rolled in any way ( they have small magnetic bands and you can ply them by making them attach to the next segment - I hope i am making sense ). My question would be - how could this shades be attached directly on the window frame ? I am interested in doing this because my windows open inwards and it would be a lot easier to open/close if the shades would move together with the window frame ? Any ideas ? Thank you !
Hi, I just made a roman shade for my kitchen door and I purchased a 3-cord cord lock that is a little different than the one shown in your video. I am certain that I have threaded it correctly but it just will not "grip" the cords and hold the shade up. Are there other things I need to make sure I've got correct, like size of the cord I'm using, etc, or any other advice you might could give me to figure out what is wrong with my shade? Thank you
If you used a different cord lock than what Sailrite sells you may need to contact the place where you purchased them directly for help. If you were using ours using the correct size cord, which is dependent on the number of cords used in the lock, is rather important. If you can't get help from where you purchased them, just order our cord locks from Sailrite and we will offer all the help in the world.
Thanks for your reply. Meanwhile I did go ahead and purchase larger or heavier cord and installed that and it's working perfectly. I'm only using two cords and I guess that must have been part of the deal. I have a three-cord lock but only 2 cords and I think the cord I was using was just too thin or light weight or whatever. It's working perfectly now though so its all good.
If you intend to make these with a view to being able to wash them, you should wash your fabric BEFORE making, otherwise you'll get some small shrinkage when you first wash them.
Your video says rings can be sewn either at the top or bottom of the rib tape. What's the difference? Will it fold differently, depending on which way you do it?
I like to sew the rings on at the bottom, so the ring does not pull only on the fabric that is sewn, but also along the rib or dowels. But it can be done both ways.
Very instructional and thorough video! I'm looking at the rest of your website now. One question so far: What kind of table surface is in the video? I'm looking for a good surface to top my next worktable. Thanks!
+Cotton Kitsune This table if from a company called Phillocraft.com. We are dealer and can quote a price for you if you like. The table top is double faced with tempered hardboard that we have finished with a few coats of Polyurethane varnish.
Thanks for getting back to me! I was thinking it looked a bit like Masonite coated with poly. I may experiment with that first. I would be interested to know the rough pricing for a 4' x 8' table for future reference. ;-)
+Cotton Kitsune 1 Ea. Phillocraft table Hard board top is $817.45 Delivery one week and additional by freight. I can quote shipping when I have a full address. If you are interested email eric@sailrite.com
No, some fabrics can be trained to fold where the lift lines are installed. In those situations not using a dowel may work. Experimentation will be required to see if it works.
In the video we used a 100% cotton fabric and tried to anticipate possible shrinkage when steam ironed, so 8" made sense for us. I would rather see you have slightly too much length. Then when it comes time to create the finial hem you can cut off extra or shift the size of the hem to take up the excess fabric.
Please add the iron on rib tape to the calculator! I went through the list of supplies and now as I’m about to make my shades, just realized I missed the tape because it doesn’t show up in the list (my fault, but would be helpful)
The reason we left the iron on rib tape off the calculator, is due to the fact that it is not always required. We show in this video making the shade without it: th-cam.com/video/x1Bllmkid-Y/w-d-xo.html
Bonjour je trouve votre travail bien fait et vos explication aussi mais seulement pourriez vous mettre un sous titre en français ,je suis de Belgique un grand Merci pour votre vidéo 👍👏🙋♀
Merci pour votre retour! Je suis ravi que vous appréciiez le contenu. Je vais envisager d'ajouter des sous-titres en français pour vous et d'autres spectateurs francophones.
Couldn't the dowels be used instead of the tape if there was a pocket sewn at the end of the sleeve for the dowel with one end open and hooded so that it would stay put but also intentionally be revealed to remove the dowel when laundering the shade? (Btw I'm making up these words lol I don't remember the proper ones 😂)
Yes, it could. However, if the rings were installed under the ribs (which would not be supported in the center of the shade, since the ends are the only means of support) you may find that the ribs bend upwards when the shade is lifted not creating a nice straight folds in the shade when lifted. So... you may have to sew the rib in place close to the lift line to keep that from happening.
+Julie Eddy At the bottom of the Sailrite website you will see a link called: "Fabric Calculator" it is under Resources. Click that and it will take you to the calculator.
We are planing on making a brand new video in the next month that will show this better. Be checking back or subscribe so you will be notified when it comes out. It will be a roman shade with a clutch roller system. It will use a ladder shroud tape.
you guys are the best but too bad some things you sell are way more expensive then elsewhere, you might do better to offer some less expensive things like your cord lock is $8.00 more then the 2.00 one that can be found on Etsy or even the 2 pack I bought for 5.00 on ebay {thats about 2.50 each} Im sure the quality is better but people are making these them self for a reason.... BC it's cheaper so you better believe that people are shopping around for their pieces and parts.I suggest you offer something like a cord lock for a few $ cheaper then what you are, even $5.00 for a cord lock is tolerable $10.00 is not.Just some thing to think about .

Is it also possible to iron the tape on the inside of the face fabric, similar to the other video where the dowel rods are glued?
Yes, the iron on rib tape can be glued inside the shade and the shade turned right side out when ribs are installed.
this is an excellent tutorial. However, I am confused about how to wash roman shades since all of the liftcords are attached to the headrail (??)
We usually do not recommend washing corded shades, simply use a vacuum cleaner to pull away dust.
Thanks
If you intend to make these with a view to being able to wash them, you should wash your fabric BEFORE making, otherwise you'll get some small shrinkage when you first wash them.
I don’t think I would wash them. They’ll come out much nicer if dry cleaned.

How to make the Roman shades the halfway windows with pleats in them
What happens if you do not use plastic rods or dowels? Will it ruin the function or look? Thanks.
No, some fabrics can be trained to fold where the lift lines are installed. In those situations not using a dowel may work. Experimentation will be required to see if it works.
What size staples do you use to staple the fabric to the head board? 1/4” or 3/8”?
1/4" will work, but usually 3/8" is the standard size for most upholstery.
The video says to add 8" to length and the calculator on your website only adds 5" to my finished size. Which is correct? Thanks much.
In the video we used a 100% cotton fabric and tried to anticipate possible shrinkage when steam ironed, so 8" made sense for us. I would rather see you have slightly too much length. Then when it comes time to create the finial hem you can cut off extra or shift the size of the hem to take up the excess fabric.

Thanks so much for your prompt response. I think I'll split the difference :)
Great video. One complaint: The text overlaps the last few lines of the required Sailrite equipment making them impossible to read.!
Thanks for the complement. I will have to be sure we don't cover the text again in the future.
Can this Roman shade be mounted on a wall above a window?
Yes, it can be mounted on the wall via the headboard.
Please add the iron on rib tape to the calculator! I went through the list of supplies and now as I’m about to make my shades, just realized I missed the tape because it doesn’t show up in the list (my fault, but would be helpful)
The reason we left the iron on rib tape off the calculator, is due to the fact that it is not always required. We show in this video making the shade without it: th-cam.com/video/x1Bllmkid-Y/w-d-xo.html
How can the rods be inserted into iron on tape. Surely the sides of tape closed after iron on
No, the iron on portion is only along the two long edges of the iron on tape.
Also why do they not use a clear grid or metal ruler with the rotary cutter? Wouldn't it be more accurate and safer?
+Cotton Kitsune Yes, you are correct it would be more accurate. Good suggestion.
I'm a bit of a safety harp...

I thought you were going to put the black out liner inside the shade.
how can buy iron on roman rib tape. need price list
We carry only two colors: Natural and White. Here is a link with pricing: www.sailrite.com/Iron-On-Roman-Rib-Tape-1
hola muchas gracias por sus vídeos pero seria posible de hacer uno el español
Couldn't the dowels be used instead of the tape if there was a pocket sewn at the end of the sleeve for the dowel with one end open and hooded so that it would stay put but also intentionally be revealed to remove the dowel when laundering the shade? (Btw I'm making up these words lol I don't remember the proper ones 😂)
Yes, it could. However, if the rings were installed under the ribs (which would not be supported in the center of the shade, since the ends are the only means of support) you may find that the ribs bend upwards when the shade is lifted not creating a nice straight folds in the shade when lifted. So... you may have to sew the rib in place close to the lift line to keep that from happening.
