I pleated the top and the project was HUGE, since it was the sliding door to my deck. It almost turned me off sewing for good! Also, good for you for standing up for your mom. When something as simple as a hot dog will make someone happy, it is terrible that you have to fight and argue to get it.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04873478695914665795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7183969995972714212.post-42286764689962549952010-01-09T15:14:21.797-05:002010-01-09T15:14:21.797-05:00Straight lines = boring!!

I mean it takes so little to make her happy. Good for you!<br /><br />I like how you used the backside of the fabric for your curtains. I never would have thought of that.

You are so good to visit your mom regularly and make sure her needs are met.<br /><br />I hate sewing curtains too! Too much fabric to handle.<br /><br />Your scherenschnitte is terrific. I wonder if you'll do a sewing theme, like a machine? That would be awesome in a frame.gwensewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05809115166600229262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7183969995972714212.post-18627456804098193022010-01-07T07:14:37.439-05:002010-01-07T07:14:37.439-05:00Enjoy those good days and you're a good daught...Enjoy those good days and you're a good daughter!<br /><br />The curtains look fantastic!

Nice curtains too and I totally agree that making curtains is gruesome.<br /><br />Oh yeah and about the glue, you might try an archival spray glue. If you do, just be sure to spray OUTSIDE and with a mask, no matter what! Very bad stuff to breath in, but I think will give you the results you want.Beangirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10402852482784879141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7183969995972714212.post-18237879357804627552010-01-06T18:18:46.601-05:002010-01-06T18:18:46.601-05:00Great works of art.
