It's curtains!

I made curtains yesterday (remade actually)! I know in the great scheme of things, sewing a few straight lines hardly constitutes haute couture but I do now have curtains for my dining room window. It only took 20 years. Actually the fabric is even older than that. When we lived in the States in the lovely old house in 1982-3 these curtains graced the library (we had a library but not many books). I remade them for the dining room here (lots of books but no library).

I have made some clothes too and am participating in me-made June but didn't join officially, being new to these things, and scared. It's fine when the weather's chilly as I have half a billion me-made sweaters, but more difficult when the weather's good. Some things are getting worn A LOT! There will be pictures eventually. I might even get around to working out how to do reviews!
