Would this work for very wide panels? I have a huge great room, with large windows, and not much wall space to park draperies on. Clients want the ripplefold look, but I dont think it will stack tight enough to clear windows and doors. Grommets would, but we want that consistency of ripplefold. And grommets bind when too wide. I have long thought about how to link grommets like ripplefold. Some of the spans will be 144" between brackets.
@WorkroomTech2 ай бұрын
Yes, this does help grommet draperies to traverse open and closed more easily. What hardware are you using that can have 144" between brackets without a center support?

@WorkroomTech5 ай бұрын
Hello, The banding can be attached to fabric with 3 different methods; a) machine sewing, b) hand sewing, or c) adhesive products (iron-on fusible tape, double-sided sticky tape, or fabric glue). We have a podcast and blog about this topic on the website www.workroomtech.com/blog-podcast

Hello, To attach to fabric, you can machine sew, hand stitch or use an adhesive. Most often on a drapery or roman shade, I will machine sew with a matching thread before adding linings.

I got all my supplies and I'm reviewing your video. I have a question. At 10 minutes in, the fusible buckram extends to the edge of the fabric. At 12:02, however, the buckram does not extend over the hemline. When would you do it one way, and when the other?
@WorkroomTech6 ай бұрын
Hello, The side hems are unfolded - that is why the buckram looks shorter at 12:02. When the side hems are folded back over the buckram extends to the outside edges (less a little bit so it't not too tight).

Thanks for this video. I am a quilter trying to make draperies for my home for the first time. When adjusting the width of the pleat to get a good position of the seam, how much difference is noticeable? I am planning for euro pleats and my math says one pleat would be 4.25” and the next 5”. I’m thinking thinking that will be too noticeable? Thanks for any help!
@WorkroomTech6 ай бұрын
Hello Stephanie, Fold up two pleats and look at them from across the room. Can you tell a difference? If you have not finished your side hems, you could cut away off one side to change the amount added to the pleats. Sometimes it's helpful to plan your pleats and spaces first and then you can plan the finished panel size.

@WorkroomTech7 ай бұрын
Hello, How you install the shade depends on the operating system. If board mounted use L-brackets or use the brackets that come with the system you choose. You can purchase dofix products as a trade customer from dofix.com or if you are not a business owner you can purchase the items used for this shade from www.homesewingdepot.com

If I am doing a lumber pillow that is 18 x 11 , do I increase my dimensions by the amount of the angle- like 20 x13 on my cut pieces? Also, do I need to use a boxed form or just get a much bigger one so it will fill the space? Thank you in advance!
@WorkroomTech7 ай бұрын
The size of the pillow cuts are to match the pillow insert seam-to-seam. It will appear smaller because it is thicker / boxed in shape. You might want to make a sample to get the exact finished size that you want. You don't need a boxed insert - you can use the knife edge insert

Hello Diane, You want the drapery to finish slightly larger than the rod width when pleated. This will give you ease so you don't have to stretch the panel. It also reduces "spring back".
@dianehorne30059 ай бұрын
Hey Susan, great webinar. I do have a question about calculating "ease" in a 1-way draw drapery. Would this entail removing 1" per panel width from the overall length of the panel? In my case, the w2w fabric is 156"; so would I calculate pleats based on 153"?
@WorkroomTech7 ай бұрын
When calculating "ease" you want the finished width after pleating to be larger than the rod width so that it's not as stretched across the rod.

You don’t serge the seams? I’ve never heard of doing the topstitching.
@WorkroomTech7 ай бұрын
For customer pillows yes, I most often serge the pillow cuts before sewing. This is a sample to show the zipper method - not a "real" customer! The topstitching prevents the zipper from showing when the pillow is stuffed.

You can follow the same measurement or customize it for a lesser sized pleat or greater size pleat. A mock-up in muslin would be a good idea to see how it works.

You just saved me! A good friend of mine asked for two bolster pillow for her daybed. I was honestly going to have to say no, because we are both perfectionists, and I knew that neither one of us was going to be happy with the outcome. I have been able to, in the past, cinch it together, but it was a permanent solution. She wants a bolster cover that is removable. Thank you, thank you.
