Making Interlined Cartridge Pleat Curtains
Channel: Windmill Curtain Room
Date: 2019-10-24

Full start to finish film of how to make a pair of huge five width hand finished lined and interlined full length curtains with stuffed and capped cartridge pleat heading. Includes cutting, joining, pressing, inserting linings, hand sewing, measuring,  pleating, stuffing and folding. The first part of the video has no music so records the many sounds of fabric being cut, sewn, moved, ironed and well as me foot stepping a million times round the worktable. Faster sections have a music background.
This a long video as the curtains are huge so there's a handy index below to help you locate specific sections if you so wish.
