Making Blackout Lined Pinch Pleat Apex Curtains

Making Blackout Lined Pinch Pleat Apex Curtains

Filmed over a couple of days this video shows the complexities of making curtains for apex, angled or sloped windows. The curtains were made from a plain linen effect fabric and were blackout lined which adds an extra complication as pinning creates pin holes that light can show through. At the top are double pinch pleats to create a classic neat finish.

Most of the video is timelapse without any instruction or commentary. A full tutorial video will be available for trade members only on my Patreon channel.
