Of course, the needle was 16/100 and the thread wasT-70 size 69
I don't like the scrunch on the top. When I close them they always get hung up on where the one curtain rod slips into the other. I hate it I'd like tab curtains or put the rings to slide on the curtain rod

Light will come in but I agree the snag on the curtain rod...I hate it. I like your ring idea though, I might have to add some to my most frustrating curtains!

Yes unfortunately, that is one of the drawbacks to the rod pocket style. You can totally make a different style for the top of these! In fact I do plan on using those elements in some future videos :)
Nice project, but truth be told I could NOT accomplish this in 10 minutes..But that's just me. LOL
this isn't fortnite
Do not make curtains to fit like this example... You'll be much happier and designer approved, if you place the rod to just below the ceiling, running panels down to touch the floor. When open, the panels should lay outside of the window frame. The width of fabric should be 3 times the width of the window. Also, dont shirr. Use clips to hang from rod, instead, for a nicer look.
Great instructions! Thank you
