Step 7Curtains: sewing
Lay the white cloud shaped edge over the blue fabric as shown and pin carefully in place. (for the second curtain, reverse the image). You are sewing straight fabric to slightly biased fabric along a series of curves, so you will need a lot of pins to keep the fabric under control.
Sew a line of straight stitches about 1/2 inch in from the raw edge and remove the pins as you go to avoid sewing over them.
Finish the applique by sewing over the straight stitches and then the raw edge with a very dense, wide zigzag stitch in a light blue thread. Clip away excess blue fabric below the cloud stitches on the back of the curtains.
Sew a 1/2" long buttonhole halfway along the top edge of the curtain, about 1" in.
Fold over the edge and sew into a narrow casing, about 1" wide.
Set the finished curtains aside.
