One of the benefits of sewing, is the ability to customize looks. Decorating your home takes on new meaning when you can hand select fabrics and embellishments and then sew them together yourself so that you are in charge of quality. That’s why we love this video on how to make a roman shade by Sailrite. It takes you step by step from adding drapery lining all the way to adding hardware. This is a very thorough video tutorial.
