I used sheets for lining on the curtains in my sun room. It was the best thing since sliced bread. I cut head to foot on most of them (top to bottom or bottom to top) I guess this kept me cutting on the grain because I was trying to get the most mileage I could out of the last sheet and laid one panel ?wonky?. It fought with me to the end but I accepted it as a victory for myself and it is happily hung up on the window.
(Do you think the 250 thread count was the reason my needle was making that 'thunk, thunk, thunk' sound?)
