Anyone have any info for Anne? Maybe try ebay or calling Waverly to see if they still make it?

I like so many others are just smitten with your fabric. I know it’s an older product, but I thought I would reach out to others reading your blog to see if anyone has found your fabric anywhere. I’ve gutted and am finally putting back together a cape-y farmhouse. There’s so much all at once, so I think I’m going to try your mood board approach. Wonderful blog!

I haven’t actually. I worried the blackout fabric might melt (it feels sort of rubbery) when you iron it but maybe ask if it’s ironable before getting it or get a small sample and test it with hem tape? Hope it works!

I was going to recruit my mom to make some curtains for my nursery…but after finding this sew-free post I am ready to tackle it on my own (along with the crib skirt!). However, I was planning on lining the curtains with blackout fabric. Have you attempted this with the iron-on tape? I would love to get your thoughts/tips!

I would wash it on cold and tumble dry low to pre-shrink it. Hope it helps!

Ok, so I am going to try this, got the fabric, now have a question. Did you wash the fabric first? I have a 100% cotton fabric and I just need to know if I should wash it before I apply the heat n’ bond. Thanks for all your inspiration!!

So sorry! It was by P Kaufmann and was outdoor fabric (I believe it’s also billed as Waverly since that’s the parent brand). Hope that helps you find it!

I love your curtain fabric. My daughter’s room has soft turquoise walls and I am just redoing the texiles, but don’t want to switch the paint colour (I love it so much!). Do you remember the name of the fabric you bought? The link here is dead now. Do you know the kind of material? Cotton? Linen? It hangs very well. Thank you!

So thankful for Pinterest for directing me to your blog. I am going to remove all the yucky doors on my closets and use curtains instead. I’ve been trying to figure out how to make the standard curtain rods fit inside of the closet frame when I saw tension rods at Ross last night. Glad that you guys also thought it was a good idea! I’m hoping it’ll work out for wider closets.

Great blog, thanks so much!
