Have you been surfing the net trying to find some information about making quilted shower curtains? Well you have come to the right place. This post has been written with you in mind.

I will quickly go through a few ideas that you can incorporate and some much needed information that you need to know before you start on this project.This is why I invite you to read right to the very end and you will be realise how useful this post is.

You may have tried hard to find what you are looking for in stores to no avail – hence the decision to do it yourself. For example you may be thinking of cheap purple curtains or hookless shower curtain with snap in liner {blended|accentuated|beautifully combined} with a variety of certain colours but it’s not easy getting what you want because your local bathroom store doesn’t sell them. How can you go around this? Simply do it yourself.

Here are some thought starters.

If you are looking for a lighter one try to avoid adding any kind of batting.

Quilts can make the curtain porous so you need to me tactful with your stitching.

It is usually best to simply quit at the top and then use a plastic lining. You can just saw the quilts at the top and then find some nice rivets to use.

As highlighted earlier sawing the quilt on to the lining can cause it to leak, hence my recommendation to consider sewing the quilt at the top. Unless you have other methods to minimise the leakage.

When making it like a quilt top that is pieced together you can then put a backing on it to hide the seams.

Consider making the button holes to be on top of the hooks so you won’t have to stitch the quilt on the liner. This will leave you with an option to wash the liner easily and separately. You can even throw it away when it wears out without losing the quilt.

Are you looking for some ideas on making quilted unique shower curtains? Well you have come to the right place. I believe this post will satisfy your desire.

I will quickly go through a few ideas that you can incorporate and some much needed information that you need to know before you start on this project.This is why I invite you to read right to the very end and you will be realise how useful this post is.

You may have tried hard to find what you are looking for in stores to no avail – hence the decision to do it yourself. For example you may be considering purple striped shower curtain or hookless shower curtain {blended|accentuated|beautifully combined} with an assortment of beautiful colors but the problem is that your local bathroom store doesn’t carry them. This is where DIY comes to play.

Here are some thought starters.

You can make it without putting any batting in it to make it lighter.

One of the most important prerequisites of a shower curtain is water proofing – so be careful with your stitching.

I suggest you make a quilt top and then use plastic for the lining. You can just saw the quilts at the top and then find some nice rivets to use.

If you choose to sew the quilt on to the liner then it will most probably leak, this why I recommend sewing at the top. Unless of course you don’t mind the possible leakage.

When making it like a quilt top that is pieced together you can then put a backing on it to hide the seams.

You can also make buttonholes across the top of the hooks instead of sewing the quilt to the plastic liner. This way you can wash the liner separately or throw it away when it wears out.
