I wouldn't have thought of it and who makes their own curtains anymore let alone embroiders or uses rick rack (except the jumbo on kids quilts? :)Jean Carltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18418419315053468466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7338596675947202050.post-51730488814806348062018-11-06T08:52:55.816-06:002018-11-06T08:52:55.816-06:00Yes.

I don't wash these often but I do think it will work better attached this way (I'll probably do them by hand) and it adds the design element that a straight line doesn't do. thanks for writing.Jean Carltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18418419315053468466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7338596675947202050.post-45331507392835722352018-09-06T06:32:24.928-05:002018-09-06T06:32:24.928-05:00I do know that feeling!

And that is a cute way to attach the trim. Sewing by machine down the center works, but the points tend to curl over. Your method will stay secure, even if you wash them.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15432818284701098002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7338596675947202050.post-39154121657738014602018-09-04T21:55:46.275-05:002018-09-04T21:55:46.275-05:00Love the finish on those curtains, and I enjoyed y...Love the finish on those curtains, and I enjoyed your story.<br />Yes, I often find just what I need at yard sales and thrift stores.
