March One Monthly Goal. Finish Link Up







My OMG for March 2024 was to turn the UFO  "30 Blocks in 30 Days" flimsy into a shower curtain. 

I worked on it. In between, RSC blocks, Project Quilting Challenges, Table Scraps Challenge and a baby quilt. 








Some squares and rectangle were added to the sides. 





Then I made a backing out of muslin and measured and remeasured and attached the backing right sides together only on the sides. I do not have 12 grommets or extra large eyelets in my stash. So a shopping trip will have to happen on Monday!  Monday is April!!!!


So I clothespinned the top to some wire hangers, twisted the hooks and hung them from the shower rod. This is the crude look!


It is wide enough, but I need to interface the top to accept the grommets and I think the bottom will need some added length in order to get a decent hem that can be weighted in the corners to help it hang straight. I've made drapes in my past life and will look to see it I can find drapery weights. 

So I did not finish my goal, but I made progress. And that is OK by me.  April OMG will to FINISH. 

I'm linking up with Anne-Marie at Stories from the Sewing Room. 


Stay Busy and Stay Happy and Healthy and Hopeful!

  6. That's such a creative use of your sewing skills. I think you are on the right track with interfacing the top and using drapery making techniques. You might also want to consider treating it with something that will help it become water resistant such as Scotchguard or Olfa's iron-on product which I cannot remember the name of right now.
