Decide first what type of curtain you want to have in your bedroom. The veil can be as simple as a rug. Its edges can decorate frill - a romantic bedroom. And if you are sufficiently well managed with a sewing machine, you completely "hands" veil complex made from a few pieces of colored cloth, the so-called patchwork. Or even comforters.
Before you cut the product, you need to know the size of the bed: Measure the width and length. By the length of the bed, add 3.5 cm (for joints), and to the width of 3 cm. Cloth covers can be very diverse: tapestry satin, wool, organza lining. On the reverse side pristrochit need some non-smooth cloth to cover does not slip out of bed.
If you want to decorate the veil frill, first calculate its width. To do this, the height of the fabric vychte distance from the floor to the frills and add 4 cm at the seams. Length Ruffles must be at least one and a half times more than the length of the curtains - that was enough for assembly. Frill consists of several parts: two sides, one for the foot and two - for the corners. Well done on the perimeter edge to better lay frill. For ruffles will fit not only the fabric is gathered, and lace, fringe, you can link it to the hook and make a brush.
A more sophisticated version - counterpane. To do this, you need not only the fabric but also lining. Stitch can be done on the machine, but you can manually stitching it in several places. Line of stitches to hold chalk.
Very popular in the style of patchwork bedspreads. There are a few subtleties. First, you need to choose the fabric of the same weight and texture. Otherwise, when sewing the fabric pieces can puff up. Secondly, your veil should be suitable for machine washing, and then with dry cleaning then trouble will not be gathered!
Before cutting the fabric wash and iron (to avoid surprises with shrinkage). Then cutting squares pinking shears to the edges do not obtrepyvalis. Sew parts of synthetic filaments particularly strong, so they are not separated in the wash. Squares (or diamonds) please number by color and place on the table for clarity. Then sewn. Tip: crosslinked in the form of long strips gradually When sewing them together. Two halves make better covered separately and then together. So it will be much easier.
