omlyLast night after Tab went to bed, Roger and I did a bunch of work getting ready to make the curtains. Have I mentioned how much this man thrills me recently? He laid out our plans in Pro-E so we could adjust them as we discussed different options. And he even lets me pick my prefferred working length units. (Centimeters for this project if you are wondering.) Yup he loves me.
Considering the necessary outer dimensions, width limitations on the fabric, and how much we had of each color/type we finalized our layout. Most of the front panel pieces are cut, so we should start piecing it together tonight. Even knowing the dimensions in advance the sheer yardage of fabric feels enormous (7 yd fleece, 2.25 yd primary color, 2 yd secondary color, 1.5 yd tertiary color, 4.6 yd backing but we will need more of the last). It is a good thing we have so much empty space in the livingroom. We needed it as layout space. I am getting really excited about this project now.
