I am a novice sewing who was looking for good basic instruction. I found the pictures and instructions in the this book very helpful for creating easy, professional looking draperies and valances.

This book is completely awesome. I don't need to purchase any other reference materials for ideas on how to do my windows. Love it, love it, love it!!!!

I recently bought a new house with very large windows. I can't find store bought curtains, so I'm going to have to create my own designs. This book gave me several ideas that are new and unique -- things I'd never thought of. There are pages and pages of color photos to inspire you. Unfortunately, this is not a "how to" book but an idea book. Now, I have to figure out how to sew what I like!
Visually satisfying June 25, 2008

The photos are superb, no doubt about it. To me the pictures that sometimes went with the instructions were not enough. I felt that if there were step by step sketches or pictures to the instructions, it would have gotten an excellent rating from me. Overall, I still would give the book 5 stars.
good stuff February 16, 2008

Beautiful book. I loved the photographs and easy to read style. I am more motivated than ever to do the drapery projects that motivated me to find a book like this in the first place. Well done.
