If you are wondering how to make Roman blinds you should be able to find detailed instructions, with illustrations and patterns, online. Roman blinds are not very difficult to make providing you have some skill with sewing and they are a good choice for someone who is just starting out making their own blinds.
Once you have decided on the style of Roman blinds you will make you should go ahead and measure the window area you want to cover. They are best made from light to medium weight material and in most cases they look better if they are lined with material. When purchasing the material, remember to allow extra for the hems on the side and the bottom of your Roman blind. If you are purchasing patterned material buy a little more to allow for pattern matching.
Other items needed in order to make your own Roman blinds includes wooden or plastic doweling, small plastic rings to thread the cord through, a wooden or brass knob to attach to the end of the draw cord, nylon cord, Velcro, a wooden batten at top of the window frame which the Roman blind will be attached to, and a small cleat that attaches to the wall on the side of the window frame. You can purchase Roman blind kits that include all of the items needed to make the blinds and detailed instructions on how to do so. If it is your first time making Roman blinds you might find it easier to buy a kit rather than buying all of the items needed separately.
If you need detailed instructions on making Roman blinds, and you decide not to buy a complete Roman blind kit, you could look online for exact instructions on how to do this or you could go to your library and borrow a book that has instructions and patterns included.
