Wow  I was really debating whether I'd need to make a valance for my large kitchen bow window as it was over 100" in width.  However I purchased 3 of these and they look terrific.  I bought solely with the expectation they would be decorative but with the lining, they actually do a great job of filtering out the harsh afternoon sun that streams in that window--added bonus!  Color is true to the picture and looks great against pale gray wall with white trim.
