I think these curtains are very cheaply made.  Upon hemming them with straight pins to the correct size and trying them at the windows , it is quite evident how far the horizontal stripe is out of alignment with it's partner panel.  out of 4 panels, no 2 matched correctly. These are not worth your time nor $. I have waited twice today to talk to some one to settle this problem  and after an hour wait each time I hung up.  Now, I'll take it to my credit card company. Thank you
