Comments: Excellent sourcebook for design professionals.
The Sketchbook has page after page of ideas for easy reference and presentation during consultations. Cuts your workload with ready- made artwork. I want her latest edition printed in 1998 or 99.

This is a great book if you're looking for unique window treatments. I wanted something everyone else didn't have. It is not a how-to book but the illustrations are very detailed.

Comments: Mainly Classic Designs
This book will not teach you how to sew curtains but it will give you loads of ideas for your window treatment.However, it is only ideal for those looking for classical designs since no modern styles are shown.

It also lacks new creative designs, I always felt that each design is familiar to me.

Comments: The Curtain Sketchbook 2
This book was never sent to me. The book that was sent to me was just "The Curtain Sketchbook" when I sent an e-mail regarding this matter I did not get a reply by Amazon.com

I think you people have the IBN# mixed up wuth the 2 books. Check it our because till today I have not recieved the The Curtain Sketchbook 2.

The only book I recieved was The Curtain Sketchbook
I would really appreciate if someone got back to me regarding this matter. I

I have been buying all my books from Amazon.com but I feel the quality of service has been going down the drain.

The only thing you guys can do yo make me happy is find the "The Curtain Sketchbook 2" and not "The Curtain Sketchbook" and send it to me ASAP.

Thanks

Comments: Great source of ideas for elaborate window treatments
The book contains line drawings of styles for all the various elements of a window treatment as well as ideas for dealing with different kinds of windows. The book decomposes window treatments into pelmets, valences, etc., etc., etc., with pages of line drawings of styles for each element. Then, it pulls the various elements together into a total look.

I was leant this book, but I found it so helpful I bought my own. It has drawbacks. If you want something simple and/or you plan to make them yourself, this probably isn't the book for you. There are no instructions or measurements of any kind, just the drawings. But if you're working with a decorator who knows a professional, or are a decorator yourself, then this book will help your imagination run wild.
