When my husband and I first moved into our current house Asia and I made a trip to the hardware store to select paint colors for her room. After much deliberation Asia settled on a light shade of pink for the upper half of the walls and a dark shade of pink for the lower half (the room already had the white chair rail). Jason and Asia spent a few afternoons painting the room - all in pink! With the walls completed, all she needed were curtains for the windows. Later, when I was out shopping for fabric with my mom I saw this fabric. It was perfect for Asia's room - it has similar shades of pink and is covered with black cats. The fabric was perfect for a girl who loves both pink and cats. Previously I had found a book detailing how to sew various types of curtains and I settled on this type for their simplicity and tailored look. This type of curtain is simply two flat pieces of fabric sewn together right sides facing, turned, ironed and stapled to a 1 by 4 board. Easy! The to tie them back I sewed a fabric covered button to the point where I wanted them opened and attached a ribbon to loop around the button. Voila, cute cat curtains to go with the pink room.
