A Miscellany

Here is a collection of recent projects.

The first picture is my very own hybrid: a flat Roman shade, ribbed in back, with relaxed Roman folds over a straight bottom.  We wanted the bottom straight so the relaxed folds didn't pool on the shelf and also so the bottom corners would not be uncovered.  I've never seen a shade like this anywhere else, so as far as I know, I invented this myself!
If you're interested in how this is made, I'll do a separate post about it.  Let me know in the comment section at the end of this post.

Remember these pillows?  Here they are on a campaign bed, with the tapestry hanging.
Another "winter trees" shade- it just never gets old!

Flat Bottom Relaxed Roman

Here is a twist on a relaxed Roman shade- a flat bottom.  The advantage: there's no "short point" on the sides.
