    Thank you, Debbie, I am not confident at sewing having only just taken up this hobby at the age of 69. I followed your very simple instructions for making this blind and I am absolutely thrilled with the result. This has given me much confidence I am now going to make the over arm sewing caddy and then on to a patchwork quilt.

    What a fantastic tutorial! It’s so nice to watch a no nonsense video, where things are clearly explained & demonstrated with the bits you don’t need to see edited out! It’s great to have a video that gets straight to the tutorial without any waffle at the start and with no music too - thank you Debbie! I feel confident in trying my much delayed Roman blind project after watching your video :) honestly this is easily the best video for Roman blinds I’ve come across

    Thank you Debbie for all the reasons already mentioned :) Thanks to you I've just finished my first Roman Blind. I divided the fabric into equal thirds but was not so keen on the bottom third hanging down so added two more rings at the bottom, at the seam where the outer fabric is turned in. That fixed it. It now tucks under the other two folds when up. I didn't add another rod. I also sewed the tape onto the lining fabric before I hand sewed the two pieces together. I made my own tape the same as the lining fabric. I stopped short leaving 3cm at each end which I hand sewed onto the folded-over edge as I went round hand sewing the two pieces together. I used a plain fabric and didn't want the stitching to show. I couldn't find Roman Blind rods in the shops (NZ) but did find some fiberglass tent rods in our garage which were just right for size and weight. Very happy to recycle to them and even better than buying some! I'm really pleased with it. Next time, if there is one, I'll divide the fabric as you did. Thanks again, Joy.
