Ever wondered how to sew curtains but thought it was too hard? Well it’s not nearly as tricky as you think! Why not give it a go and try your hand at some simple Pencil Pleat or Tab Top Curtains? We’ll hold your hand through every stage, from measuring your windows to hand-sewing your hems.

In this course, we will show you how to sew curtains! We will guide you through all the measuring, pattern-matching and sewing to make your own set of curtains. You can learn both Tab Top and Pencil Pleat varieties with and without a lining. 

One of the most important, and sometimes frightening, aspects of curtain-making is the measuring and pattern-matching. The worksheets included in this course will make the calculations easier and we will hold your hand through each section.
