Made to Measure Curtains
Our Wildflower Collection takes its inspiration from the delicate shapes of cow parsley, dog roses, daisies and dandelions, found in hedgerows, gardens and woodlands. Cow parsley is one of our most beautiful wildflowers giving so much pleasure in May and June.
The timeless wildflower fabric, Cow Parsley, shows small simplistic butterflies sitting on the heads of the quintessential English wildflower. Again, I have a slight obsession with spots and stripes, which are ever evident on the delicate wings of British butterflies.
With Dandelion Trellis I celebrate the fun and beauty of dandelion clocks.
The bold floral fabric, Wild Rose, inspired as suggested by its name, has the delicate shape of hedgerow Dog Roses. The same flower head is depicted in Songbirds, making the two floral fabrics easy to use together in the same room.
The Song Birds design make for beautiful yellow and grey floral fabric curtains, with its slightly Oriental pattern: between the florals and birds are gentle meandering vertical stripes filled with delicate lines and spots. This design is also available as a Wall Covering. Bird pattern fabrics and wallpapers work particularly well in bedrooms, sitting rooms, bathrooms, and hallways.
In addition, a chair, cushions, and perhaps a quilt made from one of these floral linen fabrics to match your curtains, would make a lovely focal point in a room. As part of our Made to Measure service, curtains can be made from any of the designs from my Wildflower Collection, which are all printed on linen union fabrics.
How to measure up for your curtains:
A video guide to help you measure up
Please remember that pattern repeats and fabric widths are automatically calculated if you order through our website. It is advisable to fit your pole or track before ordering your curtains. Your pole or track should ideally extend 30cms on each side of the window so when drawn back light is maximised and at least 15cms above the top of the window to block out as little light as possible again. Please use metric units only when measuring.
Poles:
Width: If you have a pole, measure the distance between the finials. (A)
Finished Length for pencil pleat, triple pleat and double pleat - when measuring the finished length using a curtain pole, we recommend allowing between 2cms and 5cms above the eyelet on the underside of the curtain ring, depending on how much of the pole and rings you wish to hide. From the measurement you choose above the eyelet, measure down to the bottom of the hem (see B & C) and that is your finished length measurement.
Finished length for cottage pleat (choice of either 5cm or 10cm depth)- these have to be made using a 3cm single position tape, which makes the finished length non adjustable. To measure the finished length for this header, please provide us with the distance from the eyelet to the floor, and depending on your choice of depth, add 5cm or 10cm accordingly.
Finished length for flop over frill - these curtains have to be made with a 3cm single position tape which makes the finished length non adjustable. To measure the finished length for this header, just give us the measurement from the eyelet to the floor. Don't add any extra for the frill, we will do that.
Please note, we will add 25cm for hem allowance.
Tracks
Width - If you have a track, measure the total length of the track, including any overlap where the curtains meet in the middle.
Finished length: For pencil pleat, triple pleat and double pleat - when measuring the finished length of your curtains using a track add 1cm above the track (to hide the track) down to the bottom of the hem. (D)*
Finished length for cottage pleat (choice of either 5cm or 10cm depth)- these have to be made using a 3cm single position tape, which makes the finished length non adjustable. To measure the finished length for this header, please provide us with the distance from the eyelet to the floor, and depending on your choice of depth, add 5cm or 10cm accordingly.
Finished length for flop over frill curtains - these have to made with a one inch single position tape which makes the finished length non-adjustable. To get your finished length measurement, just give us the measurement from the eyelet to the floor and don't add any extra for the frill as we will do this.
Please note, we will add 30cms for hem allowance.
