Curtains in your sewing room
 
I'm trying to decide what curtains to put in my quilting room when the painting is done. Do most of you just hang regular curtains or do you make them something quilt or sewing related? I'd love to see pics too

I have no curtains in my sewing room. Think of all the lint and dust they would collect from all the fabrics that are cut and sewn in that room!

I have Sunbonnet Sue appliqued curtains in my sewing room and I bought a readymade shower curtain on the closet (doesn't have a door) that I also used the Sues' to tie it all together.

I do not have curtains, I have blinds. I need all the light I can get, I have such a hard time seeing without good light.
Old age I guess!

I have blinds as well, but I do like a curtain so, I have plain white muslin curtains with a gathered (pocket rod) valance. Looks neat and clean.

I have sheers. I need all the natural light I can get.

I have a curtain rod in my sewing room that has clips on it and I hang different quilts on it. It doesn't get direct light, so it doesn't damage the quilts. It has mini blinds behind the quilts anyway. I like the look. My window will fit a lap size quilt. I like the look of a quilt instead of curtains.

I have blinds only.

No curtains, have mini-blinds ... thought about it, but decided I needed all the light I could get !

I have mini blinds and brown sheer curtains at the sides. I also have a window A/C. I bought the curtains when our oldest DGD lived here. She didn't want me to change the sheers she had. They were new and thought I should use them. Amazing how dusty everything gets in there. Just since I started sewing in there.
