What You Must Know Before You Make Quilted Shower Curtains
Are you looking for some ideas on making quilted shower curtains? This is exactly where you will find what you are looking for. I have put together this post to help someone like you.
It is important to have all the necessary information before engaging in such an important and time consuming task. So if you can just take a few minutes to read right to the end and you will be glad you did.
The sad reality is, that in most cases you have a certain idea or vision about how you want your bathroom to look. For instance you may be thinking of cheap purple curtains or ringless shower curtains {blended|accentuated|beautifully combined} with a variety of certain colours but it’s not easy getting what you want because your local bathroom store doesn’t have them. So what do you do? I say make them yourself.
Here are some thought starters.
In order to make it lighter do not put any batting in it.
One of the most important prerequisites of a shower curtain is water proofing – so be careful with your stitching.
I suggest you make a quilt top and then use plastic for the lining. Saw the quilt top to the lining and have the rivets made.
Sewing the quilt to the lining can cause it to be porous, this why I recommend sewing at the top. Unless you have other methods to minimise the leakage.
When making it like a quilt top that is pieced together you can then put a backing on it to hide the seams.
You can also make buttonholes across the top of the hooks instead of sewing the quilt to the plastic liner. This is good especially when cleaning trying to clean the curtain i.e. you can simply wash the liner separately.
