Renji - just checking the perimeter... Finally it is done! Our new kitchen curtain. The old one was terrible - old and full with dust and hair. From the cats. For some reason cats like to stare out the window, and our cats are no exception. To maintain the problem (lets face it, is not that I can do anything to stop the cats doing what they want) I made this slightly shorter curtain in three colors: brown, green and orange. The pattern used is very easy (I already posted the diagram here), works very fast, watching television is not a problem :)
To complete the curtain for this window measuring 1m20 cm wide I needed to make 4 double and 4 single pieces each measuring 1m10 cm in length which I hand sew,alternating the colors.
To hang the curtain I used the hook-and-loop fastener from the old curtain. To be able to sew the fabric strip to the curtain I crocheted an edge by using double crochet stitch.
Washing was the next step - luckily with the weather it was dry and ready to hang in a couple of hours. The end :)
Oh no, there is something else: I also used a simple garland I had around to make the window even more cheerful. I m not very happy with the result - that garland needs some color accents. So... to be continued...
PS: Sorry for the quality of the pictures - the sun was shinning that side of the house.
