Mesh Tube Cord Shroud

These are our first shades made with the mesh tube cord shroud from Julius Koch.

It shirrs up compactly and was easy to sew on.

It has some stretch to it, so for the section between the bottom and the first tacking point, it needs to be pulled taut, the lift cord fished out, and sewn into the hem.

Very important: tie the ends into a loose loop while working on tacking the shroud, so the cord doesn't slip out by accident!
