I was cleaning my kitchen the other day...not dishes...but the deep cleaning that a kitchen needs about once a month and decided I wanted a curtain for the back door. I didn't want anything to block the sunshine as I love lots of bright sunshine so I made a valance using scraps from the quilt I'm working on now and muslin from my stash. 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.

Neat idea & using the muslin like that works really well.

They do? Oh my :)

Love the valance!! Perfect fit for an otherwise drab but sunny place.

Nice job and I love your machine embroidery, too!

Great valance!

(Don't tell my kitchen about that deep cleaning thing. I've trained it to expect less.)

that is really precious. it's really nice with the sun shining through it. it's also nice that you can view a quilt while you are doing the dishes. :)

OK, now I have to make one! My favorite block is pinwheel, so this would be easy for me to do. I love your "quilting" idea with the muslin, very creative. :thumbup:

quiltyfeelings 06-23-2011 07:55 PM

That would just make me want to get out of the kitchen and into the quilting room sooner!!!!!! I don't need any help there!

montanajan 06-23-2011 08:34 PM

Pretty, and does not block all the light.
