These are the curtains in the Thread Shed:
I hung them up in 2000
when the Cowboy built the Thread Shed...
They are quilt tops from the 20's and 30's
that were never made into quilts...
They have dry rot and are falling apart...
They are torn in places and need to be replaced.
Here are a couple of quilt tops
from the 30's that I have had for years:
They are not suitable to be quilted...
I do enjoy looking at them and will
appreciate seeing them every day
instead of storing them out of sight
in the cupboard...
I will cut off the damaged parts and
hem them to fit the window...
The old curtains have been removed...
This is my view when I am at the sewing machine.
The early morning light from the East
comes through this window...
The new curtains are in place
and they look lovely in the morning light...
I have a liner behind them to protect
them from the sunshine...
They brighten up the room
and I can enjoy them when I spend time
in the Thread Shed.
