Well I was right- a little sewing vindication. The window in the dining room was longer- hence more fabric- hence more annoying- but in the end, knowing and having done the pattern previously for
Maggie's room was a huge help! I used a mid- weight fabric on this valance and if I had to do it over again, I would have passed on the interlining. It made it very hard to sew the layers together- and button holes were a major pain. In the long run- I have a great valance. I had to order more fabric since I ended up measuring wrong so the pleated curtains are still in the wings.
