It was hard to get pictures because with the sun shining in my camera kept making the picture darker! But, I believe you can still get an idea of what it looks like and the block details.

cute.

Love your curtain! Great idea! I once worked with a gal that made kitchen curtains for all the holidays. Neat idea but it never made it to my house! (LOL)

Wow!!! Now I know what to do for my poor bare kitchen window. Thanks

I deep clean my kitchen right before thanksgiving. Otherwise, just light cleaning works for me.

I love your curtain!

Adorable.

It's so cute, you should line it so the sun doesn't fade the patches.

janiesews 06-25-2011 06:32 AM

Looks great.

That is such a good ideal. May need to try that.

I agree on all counts!!

This makes your quilting special when you can adapt it to designs for your home. I also like curtains that let the light in. Shall we sit and have an iced tea? Looks like a wonderful place to sit an share. Thank you.
