Tutorial for Burlap Curtain with Ruffles
A few months back I was on the search for some
Burlap Curtains for my sister,
I went to a great little store called
Found in downtown Mesa..
I fell in love with the curtains I found there…
but they were VERY pricey
So, I thought I could just make some!
My sister Scarlett bought the burlap at Joanns for great deal, and
I had some very cheap cream fabric left over from a
different project and I thought the cream fabric would help make the curtains really stand out!
1. I cut the cream fabric into strips
2. Put my ruffler foot on my machine
( I found it on Amazon…
it was very affordable… and I LOVE it! )
3. Put my fabric through the machine,
and let the ruffler foot work its magic!
4. After all the strips of fabric were ruffled
I pinned the ruffle onto the burlap.
5. Then I simply sewed on the ruffles with a straight stitch!
I LOVE how these curtains turned out!!!!
I did riffle to extra piece of cream fabric so my sister could tie back the curtains if she wanted to… These curtains were easy, and cheap!
Those are the crafty I LOVE doing!
What do you think?
