I was looking for collection I could hang in the south facing windows of my horse stable.  This worked perfectly.  I cut the roll up to sizes & sewed over enough to slip in a tension rod.  It makes a very noticeable difference in the temperature in the stable as it really blocks the heat - by evening, I remove the shades, open the windows & it's nice a cool when the horses come in.Pros: Great value when I compared other shade cloths.  Easy to cut & sew (does not fray).  Cons: Not really a con but I notices some curling at the edges depending which direction the cloth was cut.  This is not really a problem in my case.
