The project that has occupied me for much of the week is complicated.
Five hobbled shades, that are top-down only.  Three layers of fabric:  the face fabric is a sheer.  That's interlined with a quilty-textured middle layer with a small diamond pattern, with the right side facing out, under the sheer.  Behind all that is blackout lining.  Oh, and banding on three sides out of the middle layer fabric.  Mitered corners.   Encased cord and Rollease clutches.  And a valance over it all, with the same three layers.  The sheer face fabric has a small woven gold flower in a medallion arranged in rows, and the pleats on all five shades must match perfectly.
Scary!!!
