Fabric/Shopping Information
Be sure to choose fabrics in the “Drapery” section, also sheers can be used. SOME other fabrics can be used, consult a sales associate at the store.
Most fabrics are 54”-55” wide; the quantity of fabric I suggest to buy is based on these widths. Please re-calculate quantity needed for double width (110”) or widths other than 54”-55”. *If you bring the “Quote” sheet, window measurements are listed and the ladies at the fabric store should be able to do this for you, if not just send me an email or phone call and I can let you know what you need.
Also consider when choosing a stripe if it is in the direction (vertical or horizontal) that you want.
