touching base :O)

First off I would like to say.... I know  a lot of you guys follow my blog due to the gardening and canning and not to see my work. Well right now other than watering non stop my perennials and fruit trees and such to get them through the summer ......... dealing with the usual lack of rain for Texas this time of year and extreme heat........ that is all I am doing on the gardening and canning front... Since my garden was not up to snuff this year due to the early spring really bad flooding... well my work is all there has been to report... Sorry...

On a work note.. I am still swamped with orders... this is a good thing right... Roman Shades seem to be alive and well in Texas...

Right now I am working on a couple of soft fold roman shades.. some people call them hobbled roman shades... same thing... soft fold roman shades are just what they are called. When hanging all the way down they still have soft folds in them... not flat like a flat fold roman is when let all the way down. They are a lot of fabric to deal with at once and a bit more tedious to make. But they are nice looking... this is where I am now on the ones I am making.. this one I have the twill tape and rings sewn on and these photos show the folds ... the stripes line up nicely and all seems to be going as it should be!! :O).. This is always a good thing :O)...




I will show you guys one hanging and all done when I get there... I am 16 roman shades in the hole right now. Meaning I have orders for 16 shades including these two... yes I am busy busy busy busy... :O)

I'm falling love with roman shades in general and yours specifically. Just beautiful.
