What You Must Know Before You Make Quilted Shower Curtains

August 7th, 2009

Do you want to know more about how to make quilted designer shower curtains? Let’s just say you have found what you have been looking for. This post has been written with you in mind.

I will quickly go through a few ideas that you can incorporate and some much needed information that you need to know before you start on this project.This is why I invite you to read right to the very end and you will be realise how useful this post is.

You may have tried hard to find what you are looking for in stores to no avail – hence the decision to do it yourself. For instance you may be considering purple shower curtain or ringless shower curtains {blended|accentuated|beautifully combined} with a variety of certain colours but the problem is that your local bathroom store doesn’t have them. This is where DIY comes to play.

Here are the recommendations promised earlier.

You can make it without putting any batting in it to make it lighter.

One of the most important prerequisites of a shower curtain is water proofing – so be careful with your stitching.

You can also make only a quilt top and a plastic curtain for a lining. Saw the quilt top to the lining and have the rivets made.

As highlighted earlier sawing the quilt on to the lining can cause it to leak, this why I recommend sewing at the top. Unless you don’t have much of a problem with the leakage.

You can then hide the seams by putting a backing on it especially if you decide to go with the quilted top.

You can also make buttonholes across the top of the hooks instead of sewing the quilt to the plastic liner. This will leave you with an option to wash the liner easily and separately. You can even throw it away when it wears out without losing the quilt.
