The seams you are describing (enclosing one of the raw edges with the other seam allowance folded over) actually is called a "flat felled seam" in traditional sewing. It's a technique most often used for seams that will get a lot of wear, not just to make something reversible.

If I were a guest in your house I would love to be surrounded by these beautiful curtains. This is just what I need in our lounge room as the sun comes in in the afternoon and is in our eyes. Curtains like this would take the glare away. Beautiful.

This is exactly what I was looking for. How to make the back like the front, kind of, without raw edges on the back. I love the stained glass look, but I have for my initial project it will be dark starred fabric with panels the colors of the stars.

Indeed very patiently and systematically explained by you. Awesome 💐

Love these!! They look SO good, you picked colors that worked so well with the wood paneling.

Hi Em, Bravo on making your version of these curtains, I love the light coming thru them I'm sure they'll last a long time (due to style seam) and bring fond memories. The seam you are describing is a french or flat-felled seam, and the cutting wheel is called a "rotary cutter" they come in 28, 45 and 60 cm sizes. We learn from each other, thank you for sharing these... I had never seen this made into curtains before

I watched your room reveal, then came to see the curtains being made. Wow, wow, wow. A lot of work, so kudos on that. I had never heard of or seen the concept, but they turned out beautiful.

Great, very basic, non-quilter video (quilters know how to sew pieces together). I learned this joining, or similar, as a French seam. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Em!! Absolutely beautiful! You explain very well and I love your style! At the very end when you showed the room with all your curtains up, all I could do was smile! Thank you for the inspiration and lesson!!! 💚🧡💙❤️🤍

I just found you. I had seen curtains made similar to this, only using 2 inch squares, but putting them together was the same. I could never find that tutorial again. Thank you for doing this. I have 17 Windows and French doors in my sewing room and wanted to make curtains for them like this. My room was a sun room, so I plan to line them...I will be subscribing. I am 74 and have been sewing all of my adult, but just really got into.quilting a couple years ago. Gloria from NE Tennessee...

Queste tende sono semplicemente fantastiche, credo che saranno il mio prossimo progetto di cucito.

Brilliant demonstration with paper!! And your curtains are divine. ❤

As a Korean, I knew what bojagi is but didn't know how it's made. Now I know how to! Thank you so much for your tutorial❤😊

Flat felled seams are very durable and so neat and tidy! 🪡🧵

TY for posting this. I wanted to make bathroom window curtains using cotton material scraps but wasn't sure how to pretty- up the seams.

I love your curtains! I thought this was jogakbo? I made curtains like this using old box of 4” quilt squares I received from an old quilters attic. So of course the materials were all mixed and the patterns retro! I absolutely love the light coming through some squares and not others. To me this is a functional artwork. It look me so long but the result soooo worth it. I call them my boho curtains!

I love how your curtains came out! They look like stained glass; and also made me think of Frank Lloyd Wright.

I’d not heard of this patchwork technique before and I love the curtain you made. Its inspirational and I’m definitely going to have a go.

I will be trying this technique to make a summer weight throw for my bed. Thank you xx

These are so cool and beautiful! My daughter wants multi-coloured patchwork curtains for her new room, so this tutorial is so helpful to get me started! Thank you!

Thank-you SO MUCH. You made this so clear. God bless you, your curtains and your stappler 😅

Thank you for this tutorial. In fact, the prices for those on etsy are creazy 😮😊

Beautiful process video thank you!

Those curtains are beautiful. I may try making some like that for a bedroom. Thank you so much for showing how they're done.

I make shower curtains and line them. Those seams will make it much easier so I can use one layer. Thanks!!!!

Very cute! Summer blanket sounds fantastic for this! Thank you for sharing

I actually made similar curtains for my guest room in Florida. They were beautiful but they got faded very fast ! If I made again I would have to line them to prevent that. The sun will definitely fade out those beautiful colors very quickly and it's soul destroying after all your hard work.

Great job.

Lovely...hope to make one soon fr me

I know you said that you had bought linen and cotton fabric for your curtains, but what type? Did you look for fabric that allowed some light to come through regardless as to the name of the fabric? Thank you for not using silk! It does not hold up well in a sunny window and will eventually decompose. Great tutorial for someone who seems like a new sewist! Looking forward to more great videos to come!

Beautiful video Your curtains look great. Thank you for sharing. Blessings to Everyone. ❤❤❤❤

Brilliant job. So well presented. I really liked the mention of details such as using contrasting colors of thread in bobbin and needle. I just subscribed and look forward to your next project. Btw, the William Morris wallpaper is beautiful

Singer make a foot that "turns" hems. I have a vintage one, but it still fits and works on my new machines. Love how the curtains look finished !

Just stumbled on this. They are so pretty. I’m inspired! ❤

Wow! Thank you! This is a great tutorial! Plus, seeing them all up in that bedroom is stunning!! Great explanation & demo!!! So happy your channel just popped up today!! Now, I’m subscribed w/you👍🏻🤗👏🏻

thank you for the video! I have scrap linen and am going to make a curtain for my partner!

I love the color choices!

great tutorial! these curtains are beautiful!

Wow..these are beautiful. I may be able to do this thanks to your video!

Hi from South Africa 🇿🇦 I was wanting to make a patchwork jacket but didn't want it lined, like a light throw, this technique would work wonderfully and make it reversible. Think it's a French seem, but could be wrong 😂. Thanks for tutorial.

They look beautiful!

you’ve inspired me to try this! wish me luck lol

I shared this video on my Facebook...great job New subscriber

For older people, you are describing what was call french seams. Used in making shear fabric garments such as dotted swiss.

Fantastic instructional video thank you!

So helpful! Cant wait to give these a go

You did an awesome job !!!

Wowww, beautiful curtain

Wow, that Looks really great!!!!

These look like stained glass! I think I would use different blues with yellow and purple!

Cute!! Good job!

Very beautiful curtains, Emma, congratulations!

A French seam?

This is really inspiring! Where did you get your fabrics??

Start with white cotton, make curtains, then add the color pieces….Soooooooo much faster, same effect

I made a curtain out of white cotton broadcloth and sheer fabric. I cheated because I used my serger an then top stitched. I love the security if that’s still seems I just did not have the patience for it.

😊

Bonjour Quel tissu avez vous utilisé ? Merci

So sorry you couldn’t get the terms straight. Very disconcerting when attempting to learn a new process.

Very creative construction, but the result looks really terrible.

Stop messing with your hair!!!

Loved your seam tutorial with the paper. Thank you, Em!
