Customer Reviews

outdated1
The ideas in this book are almost laughable. The projects that are shown wouldn't even look good with different fabrics. If you are into lots of ruffles and pouffy things everywhere, then this is for you. If you are into simpler window treatments with exquisite fabrics that complement a room, this isn't for you.

Great book with great examples5
This is a great book with wonderful examples of various curtain/drape styles. The pictures show the exact steps one needs to take to complete a project--from measuring, cutting, sewing, hanging... If one is a beginner, one can follow the book step by step and end up with wonderful curtains. If one is an accomplished seamstress, one can really take off with various ideas from this book. This is a no-nonsense, solid and beautiful book.

A real disappointment2
I was hoping for a book to give me some great ideas for window treatments and this book is full of just plain tacky window treatments. It does make it very easy to make them, but who would want to? The fabrics are cheap-looking and who wants a window with ties connected to potted plants?

The book is also lacking some of the most basic design concepts that I really wanted like balloon valances or just plain old curtains that open along a rod. This was my first return to Amazon. I have no use for this book.
