Tutorial For Up-cycled Curtains

Before you begin anything the best thing to make curtains out of is old flat twin size sheets. If you need them bigger or longer just look at the larger flat sheets like full up to king. Once you have selected your sheet fold it in half and cut on the fold. I used an iron to press the line and then followed the line, but you can just cut on the fold.

The hem on the bottle was a 1 inch in the gage, 

but you can also eye it and you will be fine.

Make sure you press this with your iron before 

pinning!!

The top hem or the hem were the rob will go 

through needs to be 3 inches on your gage. If you

don't have a gage you can always use a ruler.

Make sure you press this with your iron before pinning!!

Another view of the top hem!!

Some people like to pin with larger space between, 

but I have always used a LOT of pins!! Just make sure

you have it secure for sewing!!

I placed my fabric to follow the first line on your machine. 

Now if for some reason you don't have the lines let

the fabric barley pass the foot of your machine!! I did

this for both the top and bottom hem.

That's it. like I said very easy and fun to do! It took me less then an hour to finish the curtains and I was VERY please with the end results, and Bella LOVES them!!
