Summary: lots of information . . .
Comment: I recently received this book and I have read it over. It is full of information on fabrics and curtain styles. There are a lot of beautiful photographs for inspiration. However as a how-to book it is intimidating. The instructions are written for advanced sewers. As someone who can only sew a straight line, I think I need Curtains for Dummies.

Summary: Helpful Reference
Comment: This book is full of ideas to help plan your next project. Many of the decorator spreads are a bit wild, but certainly an inspiration for ideas. The step-by-step directions are an excellent resource for the cottage sewer, although you should be an experienced seamstress as many directions may have details missing a novice would find confusing. The window treatments I have made following these plans have been stunning. I use this book as a reference constantly.

Summary: Beautiful Book - Not for Beginners!
Comment: While the designs and photos are beautiful, this is not the book for those, like me, who are new to the home decor stage and simply want to "do it themselves" after growing to despise the current window treatments around the house. The instructions assumed a great deal of prior knowledge, particularly in sewing techniques and terms. I found this book frustrating and unusable - but then again - I can sew a straight line and that's about it. If you are looking for simple - look elsewhere.
