A little sewing...

I've started home improvement projects again. We did so much to the house before we moved in that I was burnt out of doing anything for the last 8 months. I started up again last week by painting my bathroom. It looks so much better now. I have a really big picture window over my bathtub that had a roman shade over it. The shade didn't work well so we kept it down all the time. I took it down to paint and realized how much I love being able to enjoy the picture window. So, I took a couple of panel curtains that I had in my living room in Eastman and was going to put them over the window. When I put them up I realized that one of them was longer than the other because the windows in Eastman were different sizes. So, this morning I took the long one and measured it to get it the same length as the other one. I put a hem in the bottom to match the other one. Then I took the part that I cut off and made a valence for the window behind the toilet (this window still needs blinds put up though). I was so impressed with myself! I really like sewing! Here are the pictures. I had to adjust the brightness so you could see the curtains.
