1/2 Arch Cuffed Valance


Here is a valance that I created. It is a Cuffed Valance, and I skillfully altered my pattern to frame a 1/2 arch window. This treatment is made from two decorator fabrics, one for the face of the treatment, and one for the contrast lining. The transom window on the left of the photograph has the straight Cuffed Valance, and the window on the right of the photograph has the 1/2 Arch Cuffed Valance. There were two 1/2 arch windows in this room (on each side of a fireplace), and there is a mirror image of the treatment on the right on the other side of the fireplace.

Challenging Window


This window is in a guest bedroom. Can you guess how long those swags are? From the peak to the bottom of the swags is 6 feet. Each swag is mounted on a 6 foot board. These were some massive swags! This window treatment framed the clients view of a river beautifully.

Pattern Drafting Services

In addition to making draperies, I also offer pattern drafting services for other professional drapery workrooms. Here is a photograph of a completed window treatment from a pattern that I drafted for a workroom in Sarasota, FL. The designer wanted an arched Waterfall Swag treatment with specific long points and short points. As you can see, my pattern allowed the other workroom to create a beautiful window treatment, and the client was very happy.
