I've had my eye on the Pottery Barn shades, too, and couldn't bring myself to spend the money on them. Then I noticed that we had some old white linen fabric and figured we could make our own. Well, my husband anyway. He is the one who does the sewing in our house. :)
Anyway,I was researching home made tie up shades online and found yours. You did a BEAUTIFUL job! Thanks so much for the inspiration. I'm going to go check out your tutorial right now!!

That looks absolutely perfect! Sorry to hear about the burn on the knee, but I think when doing something out of my comfort zone it's almost a help to get an injury, on the Human Sacrifice Theory - I know I've paid my dues!

There are some great fabric stores on-line if resources are shrinking where you are...

Wow! Your shades are fabulous. I recently had a friend make me some curtains for my laundry room and I know all of the work that went in to making my simple window coverings. I know you put a lot of time into yours. They are just gorgeous!

Those came out sooo great and the cost is unbeatable. I think they are just as nice as anything I've seen at PB.

Good for you! This is wonderful. Is there a dowel in the bottom hem to help "roll"it up? It looks so tidy.

Thanks for leaving me a kind comment on my PB inspired project.

That is such a sweet shade! LOVE IT! I'm thinking that would look perfect in my guest room. I would love to read a tutorial if you had the time to write one. Thanks for sharing!

Wow, that turned out great! I made one once and I agree, it's not a one-hour project. Good for you for getting it done!

Laura,

I think you should go for it! I am not really an experienced sewer all though I have made 3 cushions (machine) and made a few dolls (mostly by hand). Everything is pretty much sewing straight lines, although the trickiest part for me was figuring out the measurements at the beginning so that the shade would fit the window. I'll try to explain how I figured it out when I make a little tutorial. I can't guarantee that it will make any sense though!

P.S. I still think you should go for it! I didn't think it would turn out, and it did. :)

Cheers,
Sarah
