I been going Apples tonight sewing these 3 -80 inches long By 30 wide curtains tonight .But they turned out ok .

I really like the fabric sort of makes you hungry, we have always used either heavy washers of small sinkers borrowed of course for dads tool shed.. well done..

Great job Carolyn! Never heard about rocks for curtains :) Love,Yoriko

Oh, I love your apples! They will be great curtains! Cheery. I made my living room drapes. I started putting metal washers in the hem to keep them from blowing, but ran out, so used pennies; they were cheaper anyway, and fully recyclable when the curtains wear out.

You can buy weights for curtains. You use them if they hang by an open window and blow a lot...

I've seen people use pennies in the corners or a large washer, which can easily be secured through the center from the back side of the curtains.

Interesting, but I guess rocks will do as weights if they are flat, but they will hang in her house. As long as she is happy. That is a lot of fabric to move around. I know, I've done long and wide curtains for my home. Great job on these

I have found that old unused keys or metal washers also make nice wts for curtains. Great job on your sewing expertise Carolyn/Lillian

lol my thought to hugs

The apple fabric is sure colorful Carolyn. I 've heard of using round washers as weights in curtains - but rocks!!!!

Like this fabric, is this some you got from Florida? Neat curtains!
