Burgundy Curtains

I took on another sewing project which I think was a success!  This project was MUCH simpler that the tote bag from the last post but I still found it to be intimidating initially.  This time I made 6 burgundy curtain panels.  I bought 12 yards of $2 fabric - cut each panel to be the height of my window plus about 4 inches for the bottom seam and another 8 inches for the top curtain hole and ruffle.  I decided not to seam the sides of the panels since the fabric was already nicely finished and it was only 45 inch width so I didn't want the panels to be too narrow.  The length of the panels varies slightly and I accidentally sewed two of the bottom seams facing out instead of back as intended.  But I am very happy with the final product so check out the before and after pictures below.
