Volkswagen Bus Camper Curtains

Step 8 Hold Back

The tie backs were narrow before, but I liked the look of a nice wide tie back. So I used 2 of the 7 " wide pieces of Main Fabric to make them. After marking which end is up just fold in half lengthwise and run a seam 1/2" from the edge. That gave me 2 3" tubes 60" long. I needed 5 - 9" pieces and 3 - 13" pieces.
Take a little time here if needed to determine which tabs need to be up and which ones need to flip over to match your pattern direction.
Seam each one, one end only, and turn inside out. Iron flat. On that end sew on the fuzzy side of your Velcro.
Take the other end and pin it to the edge of the curtain to be fastened to the wall. (you want the mid point of the tieback to fall where the screw fastens to the wall. Each one was different in my case, so it probably will be in yours too.) So pin that to the back side of the curtain, and on the front side place the velcro. You will have a sandwich of 3 layers ,velcro,curtain, and tieback. Its quite thick, sew slowly, and it should be fine. My machine is a good one but about 20 years old and it did fine.
