I’ve been engaged on the bed room curtains for a couple of days now. I haven’t been absolutely targeted on this challenge. I’ve been getting sidetracked by different issues, like designing striped pillow cloth, selecting up my matted and framed chapel image for the lobby and making an attempt to determine cling it, coping with the leak within the roof and coordinating with my contractor to have the cracked solar tunnel skylight changed, amongst different issues.
However in between all these different issues, I’ve been engaged on the bed room curtains. I assumed I’d be capable to get all of them completed yesterday, however once I hung the primary panel in order that I may pin the hem in place, I had doubts about my choice on the trim. I had two choices — wrap the trim across the fringe of the panel in order that it wasn’t fairly so daring and large and simply gave a touch of orange, or use the trim in order that the total width of the orange trim confirmed.
I believe I selected the improper one. Right here’s what the panel appears like with the trim wrapped across the edge. This panel is completed aside from the hem.
Right here’s the factor. I just like the width of the trim when wrapped across the edge. What I don’t like is that the design loses its affect when it’s folded in half.
It could be a ache to vary course proper now, however there’s nothing apart from my want to get these completed ASAP that’s retaining me from doing it over if it must be carried out. I nonetheless haven’t put the pleats in a number of the panels, so if I’m going to vary my thoughts, that is the time to do it. They do have the trim sewn on the sting, however it may be simply eliminated, ironed, and reused.
Right here’s what it could appear to be with the total width of the trim exhibiting. And naturally, with my love of (and actually, my want for) symmetry, I believe I ought to have gone this path. Hindsight is 20/20, proper?
I do want it was narrower, however there’s nothing I can do to vary that at this stage. So I both hold it folded across the edge, through which case the quantity of orange exhibiting is ideal (to me) however the design is lower in half, which appears incomplete to me. Or I exploit the total width, which will probably be a lot bolder, however the design is full, which is much more pleasing to the attention and provides me that symmetry that I really like.
Not utilizing the trim is just not an possibility. I hung the material on the rod for a few days with out the trim to see if I appreciated that, and I don’t. It’s manner too plain and blah. The curtains want trim and that punch of orange for me to be proud of them. I’m simply (nonetheless) torn on use it, particularly now that I even have one panel completed (aside from the trim) and hung within the room. Let me know your ideas, however as of proper now, I’m considering I must redo them. Whereas I wish to get these (and the entire room) completed ASAP, I additionally need it carried out proper.
