Default Shower Curtains

Hey, I wanted to share pics of the ONLY two shower curtains I've made...for EVER! While sewing the 2nd one, I realized that I have only made the same pattern twice on one other occasion, and I HATE it! I like to do one thing and move on to something new. However, once my stepmother saw mine, she said "could you make one for me" and her birthday was like 3 months away, so this was the perfect non-stress gift.

They are made of cotton (of course), with raw edge applique. The pattern is so easy, I found it quite boring but since I love fussycutting, that part was kind of fun, although it works on the front heart only.

Thank you all for sharing your beautiful and inspiring photos of your work, I hope you enjoy mine.

Gina

love them. Did you put a lining on the back of the curtains?

I think the shower curtain hangers probably came from Bed Bath & Beyond, but I've had them for several years. I used a queen sized fitted bedsheet for the backing and just SID for the quilting.

By the way, this posting originally began in the quilt photo category - am I wrong in wanting it to STAY THERE???

be sure to use a plastic shower curtain liner too for the water.
