Upon arrival: the fabric feels silky, some seams are fraying already so wondering how these will look after laundering. In addition they are very cheaply sewn, only about 5 stitches per inch which means they are merely basted...not sewn ! Means I will have to restitch every seam BEFORE they are washed and hung, or they will likely come apart in the wash. Love the color combinations. Only minimal "room darkening" when tested on my windows. Glad I hadn't spent full price for the quality these turned out to be. Would not recommend ordering if you expect any longevity in your drapes without work on your part.
