And thou shalt make curtains of goats’ hair to be a covering upon the tabernacle: eleven curtains shalt thou make. (Exodus 26:7)
The length of one curtain was twenty and eight cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits: the curtains were all of one size. (Exodus 36:9)
I haven't used goat hair just yet, but anything that has fabric in it has been up for grabs in my curtain madness. And while things are going okay, I might as well be measuring in cubits for the fits I have in measuring and sewing things that match. Good night!
The pictures below are from my recent set of sewing projects.
To celebrate the YEAR OF THE CURTAIN. (just go with it ... the household item calendar will be the next big zodiac calendar. Year of the Rabbit, meet Year of the Potholder) This was the very first curtain.
This was made from a baby quilt kit that I had purchased, received and then became immediately intimidated by the amount of measuring and precise shapes that needed to be made. I am happy to report that I did cut out the shapes as called for on the instructions when I decided to use it for a curtain. And then I fudged from there. :)
Curtain from material I found at Goodwill. There was a lot of it. So far it has yielded 5 curtains with 2 more on the way!
This came from a dress that I may or may not wear to my brother's wedding. I bought 2 of the same dress (it's one of the long flow-y summer dresses), and then removed the bottom piece of dress 1. So in dress 1 there is a shirt, and two curtains from the dress. And I have me dress 2 to wear. I think these look pretty cool.
I have some other curtain projects here to work on from tablecloths my mom and I bought at Target. Grommets are next!
