Comments: The only guide for making curtains! I would recommend this book to anyone. It guides the reader in making all types of curtains-from sheers to swags to bed linen. It is easy to follow and although no patterns are included, one can easily follow the steps for making the pattern!

Comments: Deceptive..... At first glance this book seemed excellent but after reading it it transpired that the instructions are not always very clear. Although an experienced curtain and blind maker at times I could only decipher instructions in the light of existing knowledge. A beginner would sometimes have difficulty in working out what to do. Text and diagrams were often not clearly connected or illustrated. Also, alternative methods of procedures were not highlighted. For example, different ways of dealing with the construction of a roman blind.
