when we moved into an apt with sliding door to a terrace that was very wide and I think was 84" long I didn't want to invest a lot into something that I didn't know if I would need when we moved out, unsure of length of time we would be there. I bought plain color queen size, flat sheet(s-don't remember if it was 2 or 3) and drapery tape with little pockets the prongs of drapery hooks fit into, sewed it to the bottom side of sheet, and left the top hem side for the bottom of the drape/curtain. The apt already had a drapery rod. (If it had curtain rods I would have just made a curtain). We were there for a year and 4 months before husband was transferred. After which I took the drapery tape off and used them for top sheets on the bed.
