i was wondering why you didn't just buy curtains when you posted before!

[bednobs]

it was curtains, wasn't it?

[tinkerbell23]

Uuuuuh had to sit & unpick x

[tinkerbell23]

[rockyracoon]

Tinks, I've just ordered mine, I got the one from Tambo's link on your thread from a coupe of weeks ago. Can't wait, yeeha!

[firewatch]

lol tink thats why i hem by hand and if theres visible holes gently rub the fabric to reduce them

[tinkerbell23]

Pmsl its the bottom thread its all loose and big loops!

So my bit facing me looks great! Lol then i flip mateial over and its a mess!! Grrrr

Good luck rocky! Youll be better than me hahahah xxxx

[tinkerbell23]

Im bloody determined to learn how to do this !!!

Xx

[firewatch]

sounds like your bobbins not in properly hun if its doing the baggy loops at teh back, so not entirely your fault.

[annadomino]

Tension is too loose on bottom bobbin.

[tinkerbell23]

It wasnt lol!!

But im all done now!! :0D woohoo xx

[tamborine]

dont let the errors stop you; the finish is soooo worth it :)

[tinkerbell23]

Well theyre hanging now all done n dusted-

I even made a wee "shelf sitter" mouse with a rope tail hahahah xx

[tamborine]

undo a few stitches at end & pull the thread through; easier & quicker to unpick.

[tinkerbell23]

Theyre far from perfect- but im happy with them! And itd a shabby look i was going for (least thats my excuse) ;0>

[tamborine]

shabby chic is all over my house

[tinkerbell23]

Its such a lovely look im really pleased with it just waiting on new bed and eventually floor xx

[tamborine]
